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.

Its long-lasting nature and moderate sillage make it suitable for dates and formal events, commanding attention without being overwhelming. While it's a bit much for sporty activities, it can work in the office if applied lightly, and for a stylish casual outing.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose
  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

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

About

Opens with a bright, effervescent burst of aldehydes and bergamot, softened by a sweet whisper of peach and neroli. The heart blossoms into a rich, powdery floral bouquet where iris and rose lead, supported by the creamy facets of ylang-ylang and delicate lily of the valley. It settles into a warm, earthy base of sandalwood, vetiver, and patchouli, with a hint of vanilla adding smooth sweetness and oakmoss lending a classic chypre depth.
