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.

About

Black XS L'Aphrodisiaque opens with an immediate hit of bitter orange and neroli, softened by a curious, green nasturtium note that adds an earthy, unusual edge. The heart unfolds with the hypnotic, slightly narcotic scent of datura, mingling with a creamy peach and classic rose, creating a warm, floral core. The dry down is all about seductive vanilla and deep amber, wrapping you in a cozy, long-lasting embrace that's both alluring and comforting.
