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.

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.

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

Opens with a sharp, invigorating burst of bergamot and grapefruit, swiftly tempered by the green brightness of galbanum and neroli. The heart unfolds into a rich tapestry of aromatic lavender, earthy patchouli, and the resinous warmth of labdanum, all underscored by a hint of magnolia's creamy florality. The base truly shines, with prominent, supple leather intertwined with creamy sandalwood, deep oakmoss, and the sweet, musky embrace of ambergris and tonka bean. It's a journey from zesty freshness to a profoundly warm, leathery dry-down.
