Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Given its strong sillage and impressive longevity, this fragrance isn't ideal for a strict office environment but shines on dates or special occasions. Its powerful floral-vanilla accord lends itself well to formal settings, while its intensity makes it less suitable for casual or sport wear.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Imagine a lush garden, not just blooming, but bursting with heady gardenia and sweet heliotrope. The heart unfolds with a bouquet of peony, sweet pea, and jasmine, rich and undeniable. As it settles, a sweet, powdery vanilla emerges, grounded by earthy patchouli and a hint of cedar. This is a big, bold floral with tenacious staying power.
