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

Imagine stepping into an old bookshop on a crisp evening, wrapped in the comforting embrace of spices. Top notes of fresh, almost green spice from bay leaf and carrot seeds give way to a powdery, musky heart of orris and soft lavender. A touch of nutty warmth from nutmeg and sweet amber rounds out the base, creating a non-gourmand sweetness and a cosy, atmospheric scent experience.
