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

Hamsa opens with a zesty, almost tart citron, quickly interwoven with the distinctive, resinous, and slightly balsamic aroma of mastic. As it evolves, the star is undoubtedly palo santo, offering a clean, woody, and subtly sweet core, underpinned by warm frankincense and myrrh. Hints of juicy apricot and rich cognac peek through, adding a golden sweetness that prevents the woods from becoming too dry, before settling into a serene, meditative blend of sandalwood and a gentle oud.
