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.

About

Opens with a rich, almost jammy Taif rose, brightened by a hint of tart raspberry and the unique, leathery spice of saffron. As it evolves, a deeper, intense rose heart emerges, complemented by a subtle orange blossom. The drydown unveils a warm, earthy blend of patchouli and woody notes, softened by a gourmand whisper of praline, creating a darkly sensual finish.
