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

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Sport

Its intimate sillage and clean, natural aroma make it perfect for office or casual wear where subtlety is key. The moderate longevity means it's not ideal for long formal events, and while fresh, it's more serene than invigorating for sport.

About

Opens with a distinctive bitter citrus, sharp grapefruit, and petitgrain, not your usual zesty burst. This quickly blends into a calming heart of herbal notes, reminiscent of black tea and lichen, creating a clean, slightly soapy impression. The journey culminates in a soft, woody dry-down of sandalwood and 'sacred woods', evoking a gentle, almost meditative forest floor.
