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:
Spring

Fall

Its floral, fruity and warm spicy composition leans towards spring.

Best Occasions

Given its unusual and potentially off-putting profile, Grief isn't suitable for most settings. It's too challenging for the office and casual wear, perhaps best reserved for niche formal events or artistic date nights where a statement scent is desired.

About

Grief opens with a perplexing floral note, not your average bouquet but something wilting and bruised. Soon after, a perplexing spicy accord emerges, almost medicinal, clashing oddly with a surprising burst of sour, overripe fruit in the base. It’s an unconventional, almost unsettling experience that lingers with an unsettling sweetness.
