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:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Fall

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date

Its moderate sillage and 'clean' character make it excellent for the office, with many reviewers specifically endorsing it for work. While some consider it a versatile 'all-rounder', its unique and sometimes polarising green-spicy profile, and decent longevity on some, make it less ideal for intimate dates or high-stakes formal events.

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.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bitter almond Benzaldehyde from Almond
  • Bitter orange peel Citrus Aurantium Amara Peel Oil from Neroli
  • Neroli Citrus Aurantium Amara Flower Oil from Neroli
  • 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

This one opens with a bracing burst of greenness, bergamot, and blackcurrant, edged by star anise and redcurrant leaf that gives it a distinctive, almost tart quality. The heart blossoms with spicy florals - rose, lily of the valley, and carnation are lifted by a kick of pepper and nutmeg. It finally settles into a comforting, woody base of cedar and sandalwood, softened by musk, a hint of almond, and an unexpected whisper of raspberry, preventing it from veering too serious.
