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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its fresh citrus and subtle woody accords make it ideal for casual wear and office environments, as it's unlikely to offend. While not overtly romantic, its relaxed nature could suit a low-key date, but it lacks the gravitas for formal events.

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

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

Ares opens with a lively burst of citrus, dominated by bright grapefruit and sweet mandarin, instantly invigorating the senses. As it settles, a clean, smooth heart of cedar and sandalwood emerges, providing a grounding woody core. The dry-down reveals a soft, almost powdery musk intertwined with warm amber and a hint of earthy patchouli, creating a comfortable and approachable skin scent.
