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.

About

Velique opens with red fruits and bergamot, with violet leaf adding a crisp, slightly green edge. The heart is a bouquet of peony, rose, jasmine, cyclamen and lily of the valley, airy and fresh rather than heavy. It dries down to clean musk with sandalwood and sequoia, which give the florals a gentle, creamy wood to rest on. The overall feel is light, tidy and feminine, a fruity floral musk that stays on the polite side.
