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.

Best Occasions

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.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

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

Exalto throws you right in with a bright citrus punch, quickly followed by the star of the show: a bold, almost liquorice-like hit of star anise. This spicy heart then mellows into a super soft, powdery dry down of creamy sandalwood, musky undertones, and the comforting sweetness of tonka bean and amber. It's a journey from zesty freshness to warm, comforting spice.
