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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall

An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office

Its moderate strength and gentle projection make it suitable for casual wear and dates, but its floral-gourmand nature might be a bit too relaxed for formal settings. The scent profile is perfectly office-appropriate due to its non-offensive character, though it may require reapplication as performance is noted as lighter.
