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.

Its long-lasting nature and moderate sillage, combined with the rich oriental notes, make it ideal for evening wear and special occasions. While some might wear it casually, it's a bit too opulent for an everyday office scent or gym session.

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

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

Python & Flowers opens with a fleeting sparkle of bergamot and mandarin, quickly giving way to a rich, jammy rose heart. This isn't a fresh garden rose, but a dark, almost gothic bloom. As it dries down, a warm, enveloping blanket of amber and vanilla emerges, intertwined with earthy patchouli and a balsamic, leathery labdanum. It's complex, sensual, and undeniably alluring.
