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

Légende de Saba is a spicy and resinous scent built around rose. It opens with geranium, cumin and clove, which feel sharp, green and warm. The heart brings rose, Canadian fir balsam and myrrh, giving a rich, resinous and slightly smoky floral core. Ambroxan, patchouli and musk form the base, adding a smooth, warm and slightly earthy finish. It is a mysterious and grown-up fragrance, one that moves from bright spice to deep, balsamic warmth.
