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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport

Its very weak longevity and intimate sillage make it suitable for casual wear or quick pick-me-ups rather than formal or long-lasting events. Many users enjoy it post-shower or during sports for a refreshing burst.

About

Satsuma opens with an immediate, vibrant burst of juicy tangerine, offering a photorealistic and bright citrus experience. It's a sweet, tangy hit, reminiscent of peeling a fresh satsuma. While linear, some detect a subtle underlying bitterness or a candy-like sweetness, evolving into a clean and uplifting aroma.
