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

Princesses de Malabar opens with a soft, clean whisper of cotton flower and zesty bergamot, leading to a vibrant heart of sweet, ripe peach and creamy ylang-ylang. As it settles, a powdery iris emerges, wrapped in a comforting embrace of warm amber and smooth sandalwood, finishing with a delicate, clean musk that lingers on the skin.
