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 strong projection and notable longevity make it less suitable for a discreet office environment, but perfect for dates and evening events where you want to make an impression. The sweet, fruity-floral profile lends itself well to casual glam, but it's too potent for sport.

About

New York Sparkle opens with a juicy burst of blackcurrant, sharpened by a touch of pink pepper for a fizzy, almost champagne-like introduction. The heart unfolds into a rich floral bouquet of peony and hawthorn, lending a sophisticated sweetness. It settles into a warm, creamy base of vanilla and cedar, with an elusive creme brulee accord promising a gourmand embrace.
