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.

Also Works:
Casual

With its long-lasting performance and strong sillage, this fragrance makes a statement, making it less suitable for an office environment. Its bold, complex character and sensual undertones are perfect for date nights and evening events, while its unique vintage appeal can also work for casual outings where you want to stand out.

About

Opening with a crisp burst of green notes and citruses, Vu quickly plunges into a rich, complex heart of spicy notes, honeyed rose, and powdery iris. The true character unfolds in the dry down, where a prominent oakmoss and earthy patchouli intertwine with dark leather and animalic civet, all softened by a hint of vanilla and creamy sandalwood. It's a scent that evokes a bygone era of confident, unapologetic perfumery.
