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

FM56 opens with rose, clove, raspberry, black currant and cinnamon, echoing the spiced fruity-rose opening that made Portrait of a Lady so distinctive, before settling into a patchouli and sandalwood heart and a musk, benzoin and amber base. It's a reasonable stab at one of niche perfumery's most acclaimed rose fragrances, keeping the spiced-fruit-over-patchouli idea intact. The original's real magic is its sheer density, an almost overdosed patchouli-incense richness, and this version simply doesn't have the concentration or resinous depth to match it, coming across noticeably thinner and shorter-lived.
