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

A vibrant blast of tangerine and spicy ginger kicks things off, brightened by aldehydes for a fizzy, almost 'cream soda' opening. This quickly settles into a rich, creamy heart of jasmine and orange blossom, sweet and enveloping. The dry down is a luxurious embrace of warm vanilla and benzoin, cushioned by soft cashmere wood, leaving a trail that's both seductive and comforting.
