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

An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Formal
Also Works:
Date Casual

Its long-lasting nature and moderate sillage mean it's present but not overpowering, making it suitable for many settings. The complex, dry, and slightly vintage character lends itself particularly well to more formal or special occasions, though some find it versatile enough for day-to-day wear.

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

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon
  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

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

Immortelle Corse opens with a fleeting, almost dehydrated apricot and a zesty whisper of lemon, quickly ushering in the star of the show: immortelle. This isn't a sweet or syrupy immortelle; instead, it's dry, hay-like, and wonderfully complex, balanced by the leathery, slightly metallic tang of saffron. As it settles, a prominent, earthy oakmoss emerges, anchoring the composition and providing a sophisticated, almost vintage chypre feel. The overall impression is one of sun-baked landscapes and dried herbs, evoking the arid beauty of Corsica.
