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.

The soft aldehydic and woody accords make it suitable for casual wear and even the office, as it's not overpowering. It's less ideal for formal events or sport due to its gentle sillage and lack of true sparkle or freshness.

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • 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

Dolce Riviera opens with a surprising zing of star anise and aldehydes, creating an initial burst that's both slightly sweet and ethereally clean. This quickly softens into a creamy, woody heart of sandalwood, subtly blended with a touch of hawthorn's gentle floralacy. The base settles into an earthy patchouli embrace, uplifted by a soft, enveloping musk, giving it a comforting, almost powdery finish.
