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:
Fall
Also Works:
Spring Summer Winter

An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its bold and sophisticated character, with strong woody and amber accords, makes it less suitable for an office setting where subtlety is often preferred. It shines brightest for dates and formal events, where its luxurious presence can make a statement, though some reviewers found it surprisingly wearable in warmer weather too.

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

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

Opens with a spark of pink pepper and a hint of dark blackcurrant, quickly deepening into the spiritual warmth of frankincense and the subtle bloom of rose. The journey culminates in a rich, enveloping base of amber and cedar, grounded by earthy patchouli and a modern touch of ambroxan and cashmeran, creating a smooth, dark, woody aroma.
