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.

Office Casual

With moderate sillage and decent longevity (5-8 hours), Promise Me is versatile. Its elegant rose-patchouli core makes it suitable for both day and evening, leaning slightly more towards dressed-up events due to its mature character. Some reviews suggest it can be worn in the office, but its strength might be too much for close quarters if oversprayed.

About

Promise Me opens with a bright, tart mandarin before a heart of jammy rose and creamy heliotrope takes centre stage. The powdery florals melt into an earthy patchouli base, creating a sophisticated and sensual dry-down. It's a sweet, syrupy rose smoothed by the almost chocolatey facets of patchouli - a classic pairing with a gentle, modern twist.
