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 moderate longevity and sillage, combined with a fresh, clean character, make it highly suitable for everyday wear, particularly in an office or casual setting. It's elegant enough for a daytime date but might lack the gravitas for formal events.

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

  • Geraniol from Rose

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 juicy, almost candy-like blackcurrant that's sweet but never cloying. This bright, fruity burst quickly mingles with a fresh, dewy rose, evoking a sense of a blooming garden rather than a heavy, traditional floral. The dry down retains a subtle sweetness, becoming a clean, elegant skin scent with hints of creamy fruit and delicate petals. It's a harmonious blend that feels light and natural.
