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 soft sillage and elegant, inoffensive scent profile make it ideal for office and casual wear. The refined powdery and almond notes lend themselves well to evening dates, though its lack of 'beast mode' performance might make it less impactful for truly formal, statement-making occasions.

About

Opens with a zesty sparkle of neroli and bergamot, quickly softening into a heart of powdery iris and heliotrope. The gourmand touch of amaretto swirls through, mellowing into a creamy base of vanilla, benzoin, and amber. It's a delicate balance of fresh zest and comforting warmth, without being overtly sweet or heavy.
