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:
Summer

A summer scent - airy and clear, designed for hot weather.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its lighter EDT concentration and fresh, subtle sillage make it suitable for office wear without being offensive, as many describe it as a 'safe' scent. While some find it very casual and summery, its classic rose character lends it a touch of elegance that can work for a subdued date or even a daytime informal event. It's too light and not impactful enough for formal evenings.

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.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Bitter orange peel Citrus Aurantium Amara Peel Oil from Neroli
  • Neroli Citrus Aurantium Amara Flower Oil from Neroli
  • 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

Opens with a sharp, fresh burst of wild rose, intertwined with the green, slightly powdery nuances of violet and a hint of zesty neroli. The heart blossoms into a softer floral bouquet, with delicate lily of the valley and sweet peony complementing the dominant rose. The drydown offers a clean, subtle musk anchored by a whisper of creamy sandalwood, creating a classic, elegant finish.
