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
Also Works:
Winter

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its subtle sillage and moderate longevity make it suitable for office wear, without being overpowering. The warm, sweet, and romantic accords are perfect for dates or casual wear, especially in cooler weather, but its understated nature might not make it shine in very formal settings.

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.

About

Opening with a juicy burst of pear and mandarin, quickly spiced up by star anise, this fragrance is immediately inviting. The heart introduces a creamy bouquet of tuberose and orange blossom, warmed by ginger and a touch of plum. The base settles into a cozy, soft vanilla and cinnamon blend, underpinned by sandalwood and amber, creating a sweet and comforting dry down.
