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.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its warm and sweet-spicy profile makes it ideal for cooler weather and romantic settings. While reviews suggest it's office-safe because it's inoffensive, its substantial projection and longevity mean it's best reserved for less formal work environments or a light application.

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.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

Imagine the exotic sweetness of Medjool dates, plush and almost jammy, wrapped in a blanket of warm spices like cardamom and cinnamon, grounded by a subtle kick of black pepper. As it settles, a dry, woody depth emerges from vetiver and cedar, softened by a creamy vanilla and an earthy cypriol. A clean musk trails, adding an enveloping, natural warmth.
