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

Ultraviolet Colours of Summer opens with grapefruit and pink pepper, a zesty, bright and lightly spicy start. The heart is a single note, osmanthus, which brings a soft, apricot-like floral character. The base of vanilla and sandalwood is creamy, sweet and gently woody. With such a short note list, this is a simple fruity floral that moves from sparkling citrus to a smooth, warm finish and feels well suited to summer.
