The Alpha Lo-Fi is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2026. Lo-Fi opens with Bergamot, Cardamom, and Saffron, settles into a heart of Rose, Pepper, and Plum, and dries down to a base of Musk, Leather, and Amber. The Alpha's Lo-Fi carries a Statement verdict, a musk-led wear.

A divisive scent, Lo-Fi straddles the line between modern fruitiness and old-school leather. For some, it's a bold, unique statement; for others, a confusing mess. Definitely not a blind buy.

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 bold and sensual character, driven by fruity, rose, and leather accords, makes Lo-Fi perfect for dates and evening events. It's a bit too much for the typical office setting, and definitely not one for the gym.

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

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • 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

Lo-Fi kicks off with a bright, spicy burst of bergamot and cardamom, underscored by the intriguing warmth of saffron. The heart unfolds into a complex blend of jammy rose and succulent plum, spiced up by a hint of pepper. It settles into a rich, deep base, where soft musk, smooth leather, and a hint of amber create a sensual finish.
