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

Lights opens with spicy notes, grapefruit and ivy, a bright and slightly green start with a hint of warmth. The heart is iris, orchid and lily of the valley, floral and soft, with the iris adding a powdery feel. Sandalwood, cinnamon, amber and musk make up the base, giving the scent a warm and lightly spiced finish. It is a feminine floral that moves from bright to soft and cosy as it dries down.
