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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Fall

Bright citrus, tea, and light woods make this ideal for spring and especially summer, echoing Mediterranean sunlight. It is less suited to cold winter days where its breezy freshness may underwhelm.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual

Its moderate projection and uplifting citrus freshness suit office, casual, and date settings but lack the gravitas for formal occasions or the ultra-clean vibe for sport.

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.

Other declarable allergens

  • Bitter orange peel Citrus Aurantium Amara Peel Oil from Bitter Orange
  • Myroxylon Balsamum Pereirae Balsam Extract from Peru Balsam
  • 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

Never-ending Summer opens with a radiant burst of bitter orange and the effervescent zing of Aperol, conjuring the spirit of an Italian spritz by the sea. Crisp pepper and aromatic Earl Grey tea introduce a breezy, sophisticated heart. The base blends sun-warmed vetiver and cedar with a soft gourmand touch of vanilla and Peru balsam, creating a seamless transition from sparkling daylight to golden dusk. Lively yet grounded, this fragrance embodies the laid-back luxury of Mediterranean summers, balancing freshness, subtle warmth, and understated depth.
