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.

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

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

Opening with a zesty burst of mandarin and bergamot, Classique X immediately sets a bright, vivacious tone. This citrus sparkle soon intertwines with a sophisticated heart of iris, peony, and orange blossom, lending a clean, floral elegance. The dry down is a warm embrace of cedar and vanilla, providing a subtle woody depth and a touch of creamy sweetness that grounds the lighter top and heart notes, ensuring a smooth, refined finish.
