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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall
Also Works:
Spring Winter

The creamy woody notes are well-suited for spring and fall, while the moderate intensity avoids cloying in warmer months and isn't quite strong enough for harsh winter cold.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its intimate projection and balanced intensity make it versatile for office environments, dates, and casual outings, but less fitting for sports due to its creamy nature.

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.

Other declarable allergens

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
