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.

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its moderate longevity and sensual, noticeable character make it a great choice for dates or casual outings where you want to make an impression without being overwhelming. It's a bit too bold for a formal setting and not suitable for sport, but could work for a less formal office if applied sparingly.

About

Emotion kicks off with a vibrant burst of blackcurrant and litchi, brightened by a hint of juniper, creating an immediate sense of intrigue. The heart blooms into a rich, sophisticated floral bouquet where jasmine, orchid, and lotus intertwine, adding depth and a touch of the exotic. It settles into a warm, sensual base of woody notes, amber, and patchouli, grounding the earlier sweetness with a smooth, earthy finish.
