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

Empire Crown opens with a sharp, zesty burst of grapefruit, immediately invigorating the senses. This bright citrus quickly settles into a more refined heart, where the clean powderiness of ambrette mingles with the subtle spice of ginger. The dry down is particularly compelling, bringing a sophisticated, woody depth from vetiver and patchouli, softened by a clean musk and the modern shimmer of Ambrox Super. It's a scent that transitions smoothly from fresh and energetic to warm and grounded.
