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

Zen Sun 2014 opens with a bright, zesty burst of bergamot, quickly joined by the juicy sweetness of mango, steering clear of anything too sugary. As it settles, delicate cherry blossom and other soft florals emerge, adding a refined femininity. The dry down is a gentle, clean whisper of musk and a warm, subtle amber, ensuring it lingers without ever being overpowering.
