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 moderate performance and generally intimate sillage make it suitable for close-quarters wear, scoring well for casual and office settings where it won't overwhelm. The green, herbal, and leather notes lean more sophisticated casual than formal or sporty, while its unique character might be a bit too divisive for a date.

About

Barry Lyndon opens with a cool, almost minty blast of green notes and freshly cut grass, evoking damp English moors. As it settles, a dry, slightly bitter herbal accord emerges, dominated by artemisia and heather, with hints of arnica giving it a subtly medicinal edge. The base introduces a discreet, well-worn leather - reminiscent of an old saddle - softened by a delicate whisper of vanilla and earthy vetiver, creating a unique, somewhat melancholic richness.
