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.

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

This eau de toilette opens with a sharp herbal and citrus mix: coriander, bergamot, basil, artemisia and lemon. The heart is floral and spicy, with rose, carnation, jasmine, iris and caraway. The base is patchouli, leather, coconut, amber and musk, which adds an earthy and slightly creamy warmth. It is a classic masculine scent in structure, with a lot of different notes working together. The herbs and flowers give it an old-school feel, and the leather and patchouli keep it grounded.
