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.

About

Kapsule Light opens with a zesty, slightly sharp bitter orange, instantly invigorating the senses. As it settles, a delicate floral heart of jasmine emerges, tempered by a subtle warmth from nutmeg and a hint of clove. The dry down is a soft, clean musk, offering a gentle and refined finish that lingers close to the skin.
