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.

Best For:

Also Works:

Its moderate longevity and sillage make it suitable for casual wear or dates where a pleasant, sweet aura is appreciated. The pronounced gourmand and fruity notes make it less ideal for formal settings or the gym, and it might be a bit too sweet for a professional office environment.

About

Opens with a vibrant, juicy explosion of tropical fruits like kiwi and lychee, brightened by zesty citrus. This playful fruity cocktail swiftly transitions into a creamy, indulgent heart where white chocolate and cupcake notes take centre stage, softened by delicate jasmine and violet. The base settles into a warm, cozy embrace of vanilla, musk, and soft woods, grounding the sweetness with a gentle, inviting depth.
