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 Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

With its moderate sillage and rich, spicy profile, this fragrance leans more towards evening and cooler weather. It's a bit too dominant for an office setting but perfect for a sophisticated date or a formal event. Casual wear is possible if you're feeling particularly 'haute Madame'.

About

Opens with a bold, almost aggressive hit of black pepper and warm cinnamon, immediately signalling a serious scent. The heart soon unfolds with a rich, opulent rose, not a dewy garden variety but a deeper, more mature bloom. This floral core is enveloped by a smoky, resinous myrrh, adding a spiritual, almost incense-like quality, before settling into a soft, yet persistent musk base that gives it depth and warmth.
