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.

About

Carlisle Eau de Parfum is a dramatic, unisex composition where crisp green apple and spicy nutmeg open the stage, quickly melting into a decadent heart of tonka, rose, and osmanthus. The base is a sumptuous tapestry of velvety vanilla and earthy patchouli, grounded by opoponax and amber. The effect is plush and enveloping, with a gourmand-woody warmth that lingers for hours. Seductive, mysterious, and undeniably luxurious, Carlisle is a grand statement for cool evenings and formal affairs.
