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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Formal Sport

Its fresh and clean floral profile, coupled with moderate longevity and calm projection, makes it highly suitable for office and casual settings. It's too subtle for a formal event, and while pleasant, it lacks the boldness for a dedicated date night scent.

About

A crisp, delicate floral bouquet that opens with the bright, clean essence of tea and zesty mandarin, lifted by the soft, green aroma of magnolia. The heart blossoms into a gentle blend of lily of the valley, powdery peony, and fresh freesia, creating an airy, sophisticated floral core. It settles into a comforting base of creamy ylang-ylang, smooth sandalwood, and a whisper of clean musk, leaving a light, natural trail reminiscent of a spring garden.
