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

Opening with a sweet, plump apricot smoothed over a luxurious rose, Sama quickly develops into a sophisticated floral heart of osmanthus. This isn't just a pretty bloom; it's got a leathery, slightly peachy facet that adds instant intrigue. The base is where the true richness lies, a warm and slightly resinous amber blending seamlessly with a refined, deep oud. There are whispers of spices, a powdery veil, and a hint of something creamy, giving it a plush, multifaceted character.
