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.

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

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

Grey Vetiver opens with a zesty blend of citrus and spices, dominated by juicy orange and sharp grapefruit. The heart introduces a more earthy and aromatic vetiver, layered with a crisp, almost soapy quality. Finally, warm woody notes ground the fragrance, providing an aura of understated elegance and refinement.
