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

Candid opens with a burst of sweet, juicy pineapple and bright citrus, quickly melting into a rich heart of flamboyant white florals. Jasmine, orange blossom, and rose combine for an intoxicating, honeyed sweetness. The dry-down settles into a comforting, warm base of vanilla and tonka bean, grounded by an earthy whisper of patchouli, leaving a delicious, candy-like trail.
