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

Gerânio Bourbon kicks off with a zesty burst of bergamot and grapefruit, sharpened by a surprising hint of black pepper. This bright, almost minty opening quickly transitions into a lush, green heart where geranium takes centre stage, flanked by delicate hyacinth and lily of the valley. The journey concludes with a soft, clean base of musk and cedar, offering a comforting, earthy close.
