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

Best For:

Also Works:

Its moderate longevity and subtle sillage make it ideal for office and casual wear, as it's never overwhelming. While suitable for dates, it might lack the 'statement' power some seek, and its freshness makes it surprisingly good for a post-gym refresh.

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.

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

Opening with a zesty burst of bergamot and tangerine, this fragrance immediately feels uplifting and fresh. The heart quickly introduces a surprisingly light and earthy patchouli, shying away from any 'hippy' stereotypes. It's clean, almost herbaceous, and smoothly transitions into a woody, slightly musky base, ensuring a comforting and grounded finish.
