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.

About

Opening with a zesty, almost sparkling burst of citron, orange, and mandarin, Eau Noble quickly introduces a green, earthy complexity from galbanum and chamomile. The heart unfolds with a refined blend of aromatic lavender and geranium, softened by neroli and cedar, before settling into a deep, mossy base. Rich oakmoss, patchouli, and sandalwood are grounded by musk and a hint of civet, creating a distinguished and smooth finish.
