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.

With moderate longevity and sillage, it's versatile enough for most settings, though its rich gourmand nature makes it particularly suited for cooler evenings and dates. Many reviewers find it too 'candle-like' or 'room spray' for close-quarters like the office, but it's perfect for casual outings or a sophisticated night out.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

Other declarable allergens

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Opens with a spirited burst of orange and bitter chocolate, reminiscent of a festive treat, quickly settling into a boozy, nutty almond heart. As it develops, a grounding blend of coffee, earthy patchouli, and distinct oakmoss emerges, adding depth and a surprisingly sophisticated edge to the initial sweetness. A hint of buttery richness and delicate white florals weave through, making for a complex, warm, and inviting drydown.
