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.

Its moderate sillage and persistent, albeit less projected, skin scent make it versatile. It's too refined for active sport but easily transitions from running errands to more formal gatherings, though its subtlety might be lost in a bustling office.

About

Opens with a juicy, natural peach tempered by the green, slightly bitter zest of petitgrain, preventing any youthful sweetness. While the promised osmanthus doesn't dominate, shy orange blossom emerges, blending seamlessly into a clean, soft floral heart. The base settles into a comforting, sheer cashmere wood, maintaining a fresh, airy quality from start to finish. It's a well-blended composition where fruit and delicate florals play in harmony.
