Scent Profile

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

The opening is a burst of citrus and fruit: mandarin, bergamot, grapefruit and lemon, with pear and green notes for a crisp, juicy feel. The heart turns softly floral with freesia, rose and violet. It settles into a base of musk, sandalwood and amber, which adds a gentle, creamy warmth under all that sparkle. As a cologne it is fresh, light and youthful, made for warm days and casual wear.
