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:
Spring Fall Winter

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

With its moderate sillage and nuanced, changing character, this scent is ideal for office settings where it won't overpower. It's sophisticated enough for a date or a formal event, but its complexity might be a bit much for casual wear, and it's definitely not for sport.

About

Riviera Nights opens with a bright, uplifting burst of bergamot and grapefruit, quickly softened by the subtle sweetness of neroli. This initial freshness soon gives way to a warm, inviting heart of cardamom, nutmeg, and rich dried fruits, adding a gentle spiced depth. The fragrance settles into a refined base of Virginia cedarwood, earthy vetiver, and creamy tonka bean, leaving a trail that's both suave and comforting.
