Scent Profile
Composition
Timeline
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
Hammam Bouquet leans powdery and aromatic, with fresh lavender and rose balanced by woody-musky depth, making it ideal for spring's transitional weather and cool fall days. The soft warmth works in mild winter but may feel too dense in summer heat.
Best Occasions
Elegant but not overpowering, its classic floral-powdery profile is versatile for office, casual, or date wear. The vintage character suits refined settings but is less fitting for sports or ultra-formal events.
