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.

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its intimate sillage and clean, fresh profile make it perfect for casual daytime wear or the office, where it won't overpower. The light, airy nature is also great for sports, though it lacks the projection for formal events or dates.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Opens with a burst of zesty grapefruit and mandarin, lifted by a hint of marigold, creating an immediate fresh and uplifting feel. The heart reveals a fruity medley of apple, peach, and raspberry, softened by delicate lily of the valley and a touch of rose. A whisper of cinnamon adds warmth before it settles into a gentle base of soft musk, amber, and a woody blend of cedar and sandalwood.
