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:
Spring

Its woody, white floral and citrus composition leans towards autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Given its rich, intense character with prominent animalic and woody elements, this scent is far too grand for the office or casual wear. It shines brightest in formal settings or on a romantic date, where its complex warmth can be fully appreciated without overwhelming others.

About

Opens with a bright, aldehydic sparkle of mandarin and orange blossom, quickly unfolding into a lush heart of opulent florals from rose and jasmine to ylang-ylang, spiced gently by clove. The real drama is in the base, a deep dive into animalic civet and leather, softened by creamy sandalwood, earthy oakmoss, and the seductive warmth of vanilla, ambergris, and tobacco. It's a journey from light to profound depth.
