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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall
Also Works:
Summer Winter

An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its enormous sillage and long-lasting nature make it less suitable for an office, but it shines on dates and casual outings where its unique character can be appreciated. While it has an elegant feel, it might be a bit too distinctive for highly formal events, leaning more towards autumn evenings.

About

The scent opens with marigold, orange blossom and mandarin, a bright and slightly green citrus floral start. The heart is more unusual: passionfruit and olive blossom sit with ylang-ylang and jasmine, giving a fruity, creamy floral feel. The base is galbanum alone, which adds a sharp, green and resinous finish. It is a green floral with a fruity twist, launched in 1996.
