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:

Also Works:
Spring Winter

The warm, spicy notes make it more suitable for cooler seasons like fall and early winter, but it can also work in spring given its floral aspects.

Best Occasions

Date
Also Works:
Office Casual

Projection and intensity are moderate, making it suitable for casual and date settings. Less ideal for sporting due to its richer character.

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

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
