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.

About

Santana Bay opens with a bright, clean burst of bergamot and pineapple, underscored by the warm, spicy kick of cardamom. This fresh introduction gently transitions into a heart of aromatic lavender and dry cedar, given a smooth, resinous depth by labdanum. The base settles into a comfortable blend of earthy vetiver and patchouli, softened by a creamy vanilla, providing a subtle sweetness that rounds out the composition.
