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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Fall

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its moderate sillage and elegant woody-violet structure make it refined enough for office or formal wear, while the sensual musk and woody dry down shine on a date. It's too sophisticated for sport and leans more towards dressed-up casual rather than everyday wear.

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

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • 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

Romance Silver kicks off with a spirited shot of vodka and vibrant citrus, a bold, fresh intro that quickly transitions into a sophisticated heart of violet and warm nutmeg. The dry-down reveals a smooth, sensual blend of guaiac wood and musk, leaving a lasting impression of elegant masculinity.
