Scent Profile

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.

Its moderate longevity and sillage, combined with a fresh, clean scent profile, make it suitable for casual wear, gym, or a relaxed office environment. It's generally not strong or unique enough for formal events or a special date night.

About

UDV Blue opens with a burst of generic green aquatic notes, quickly settling into a clean, soapy lavender scent. It's underpinned by a gentle musk and woody base, with just a touch of amber adding a subtle warmth as it dries down. Don't expect strong individual notes, but rather a cohesive, fresh aroma.
