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.

About

387 opens with rum and honey before a lush orchid-and-jasmine heart builds, echoing Velvet Orchid's dramatic, floral-oriental signature. The base settles into vanilla, myrrh, suede and labdanum for a warm, resinous finish. It diverges by wearing much thinner and less enveloping, missing the original's opulent, honeyed density and long trail. Expect three to four hours of wear, best through autumn and winter, for evenings out or formal occasions.
