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 fresh, light profile and moderate longevity make it ideal for casual wear, especially during the day and in warmer weather. While not impactful enough for formal events or a hot date, it's perfectly suitable for an office environment where something unobtrusive is preferred, and great for a post-workout refresh.

About

Opening with a vivacious burst of bergamot, orange, and grapefruit, this scent instantly invigorates. The citrus zest is quickly joined by a lively ginger kick and the green, slightly bitter nuances of petitgrain. It mellows into a subtle base of woody notes and vetiver, rounded out by a hint of warm amber and soft musk, creating a clean and bright dry down.
