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.

About

Opening with a bright, herbaceous kick of basil and bergamot, Missoni Uomo quickly settles into a rich, woody heart where cedar and vetiver interlace with a subtle rose and carnation spice. The dry down is where the magic truly happens, revealing a warm, musky leather softened by amber and a whisper of smoky incense, grounded by classic oakmoss.
