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

Malbec Pure Gold opens with a bright, zesty burst of bergamot and mandarin, swiftly followed by an intriguing, spicy cardamom kick. As it settles, a rich, honeyed warmth emerges, intertwined with an earthy patchouli and the unique, almost leathery scent of saffron. The base is a smooth, seductive blend of creamy vanilla, amber, cashmeran, and grounding vetiver, leaving a lingering, woody sweetness.
