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 nuclear projection and lasting power mean one or two sprays are more than enough. This beast mode performance makes it too overwhelming for polite office settings but fantastic for evenings out, particularly in open-air environments. It's a statement scent for those who wish to be remembered.

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.

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 an incredibly potent blast of tart, green rhubarb, swiftly joined by clean, earthy cedar. As it evolves, the composition deepens into a complex blend of dry vetiver and creamy sandalwood, underpinned by rich leather and a subtle hint of tonka bean. It's a journey through a vibrant, rain-soaked forest, with an almost metallic edge that keeps it modern and intriguing amidst its woody, aromatic core.
