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 performance and fresh, clean profile make it suitable for casual day wear and even some sporty activities. While it has a 'business casual' vibe for some, its shower gel feel might be too informal for serious office or date settings.

About

This one kicks off with a zesty blast of lemon and bergamot, quickly joined by an invigorating sea spray freshness that many describe as a classic 'blue' scent. As it settles, a spicy heart emerges, often leaning into a peppery warmth with hints of jasmine and geranium providing a subtle floral nuance. The dry down is a clean, woody affair, often described as soapy, with birch and sandalwood offering a smooth, slightly creamy finish that lingers on the skin.
