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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Fall Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

With strong projection and decent longevity, this is best reserved for nights out or intimate dates where its bold character can shine. It's too intense for a typical office environment but could work for formal events if applied sparingly.

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.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium

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

About

Opens with an intriguing, almost metallic sparkle from geranium and cardamom, leading into a rich, dark heart of rose, saffron, and resinous frankincense. The journey deepens with a powerful, leathery oud, softened by the balsamic sweetness of opoponax and the salty-animalic depth of ambergris, creating a distinctively tart, fruity-leather character.
