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.

Its moderate projection and smooth woody-aromatic profile make it versatile for office and formal settings without being overwhelming. While pleasant for casual wear, its refined nature might be a bit much for everyday errands, and it's definitely not a sport fragrance.

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.

  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium

About

Opening with a crisp burst of bergamot and lemon, it swiftly introduces a green, almost ozonic freshness with cypress and orange blossom. The heart blossoms into a complex floral array, where delicate acacia, rose, and jasmine mingle with the powdery facets of iris and violet leaf, hinting at a creamy, slightly sweet depth from mimosa and ylang-ylang. A subtle spicy warmth from clove and labdanum underpins these florals. The drydown settles into a comforting, earthy embrace of oak and cedar, sweetened by a hint of cacao pod and tonka bean, grounded by vetiver and styrax.
