A divisive but intriguing sandalwood, some find it a gorgeous, comforting woody-floral while others are put off by a 'medicinal' or 'sour' edge. Definitely one to try before you buy.

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 moderate longevity and sillage make it suitable for close-quarters like the office or casual settings without being overpowering. While some find it suitable for layering for formal events, on its own it leans too casual for high-formality.

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

This scent opens with a dominant, creamy sandalwood note that's both earthy and smooth, avoiding the sharp incense-like qualities found in some woody perfumes. As it settles, a soft violet emerges, bringing a powdery, slightly dewy floral touch that blends beautifully with the wood. The base introduces a subtle vetiver, adding a grounding, almost green earthiness that rounds out the composition.
