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.

Its moderate longevity and sillage, coupled with its fresh, clean profile, make it suitable for office and casual wear without being overwhelming. It's a bit too understated for formal events or impactful dates, but its lightness works well for daytime and even light activity.

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

  • Bitter almond Benzaldehyde from Almond
  • Limonene from Orange
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

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

Poem opens with green notes, orange, peach and coconut, a fresh and fruity start with a creamy edge. The heart is floral, with violet, lily of the valley, rice and rose. The base is soft and sweet, with musk, almond and sandalwood. It is a gentle floral-gourmand with a creamy, powdery feel, comforting and quietly feminine.
