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.

About

Golden Yuzu bursts forth with an invigorating splash of vibrant yuzu and grapefruit, sharpened by a hint of cardamom. The initial zest mellows into a heart of tart plum and delicate tea, underscored by a subtle green freshness. As it settles, a clean cedar and soft musk emerge, grounding the lively top and mid with a refined, earthy base.
