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

Imagine indulging in candied blackberries, their tart sweetness mellowed by a cloud of fluffy vanilla. This scent opens with a burst of juicy, sun-warmed berries, evolving quickly into a soft, clean musk with delicate hints of jasmine and lily of the valley. It's an airy, understated gourmand, reminiscent of berry sherbet or whipped cream, that dries down to a comforting, subtly powdery skin scent.
