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:
Spring Fall Winter

Dense, resinous, spicy and vanilla rich, The Bewitching Yasmine is ideal for cooler weather and excels in fall and winter when its warmth and depth shine. It can work in spring evenings but may overwhelm in summer heat.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its opulent sillage, gourmand and smoky facets, and sultry warmth make it best for dates and upscale events. It may be too seductive and assertive for office or sporty settings.

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

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

The Bewitching Yasmine is an intoxicating dance of cardamom-spiced coffee, lush jasmine sambac, and smoldering oud. A swirl of incense and smoky vanilla wraps the senses in a plush, golden haze, while resinous and woody undertones evoke the flicker of candlelight in a velvet-draped room. Sensual, mysterious and boldly feminine, this perfume leaves a decadent, lingering aura that is at once seductive and enigmatic.
