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

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its rich, warm, and sweet profile, combined with generally strong performance, makes it unsuitable for office or sport. It's a clear winner for date nights and formal dinners, where its luxurious and seductive qualities can truly shine. Casual wear is possible, especially in colder weather, given its cosy appeal.

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

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 juicy, bright mandarin that quickly blends into a warm, inviting cinnamon heart. As it develops, a smooth, slightly smoky tobacco and resinous myrrh emerge, giving it a sophisticated edge. The dry down settles into a creamy, sweet tonka bean with an earthy hint of patchouli, creating a deeply comforting and alluring trail.
