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 Winter
Also Works:
Fall

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its moderate to strong sillage and sweet, warm profile make it better suited for casual wear and dates where a comforting yet noticeable scent is desired. The intensity could be a bit much for a formal setting or office, while the creamy notes are unsuitable for sport.

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

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 spirited, almost effervescent kick of fresh ginger, quickly softening into a sweet and subtly powdery violet heart. As it settles, a creamy, smooth vanilla emerges, underpinned by the warm, woody embrace of sandalwood, creating a comforting and enveloping drydown.
