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
Its aromatic, herbal and musky composition leans towards spring and autumn.
Best Occasions
Its moderate projection and clean aromatic profile make it ideal for office and casual wear, avoiding anything too intrusive. While versatile, its relaxed nature makes it slightly less suited for very formal events or high-energy sports.
