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.

About

The Silk opens with a fresh and vibrant burst of violet leaf and pear, gently tickled by pink pepper and bergamot. As it evolves, an exquisite heart reveals lush orchids and delicate peonies, wrapped in the warm embrace of amber. The foundation is a creamy blend of musk and tonka bean that lingers like a gentle touch against the skin. This fragrance feels like slipping into a luxurious silk robe, enveloping you in a polished and intimate scent that feels both approachable and elegant.
