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 Fall
Also Works:
Winter

Built on white floral, cherry and lactonic - a composition that sits best in spring, summer and autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual

This scent's 'powerhouse' initial projection and sweet, indulgent accords make it less suitable for the office. It truly shines on dates or for casual evening wear, where its warmth and sensuality can be appreciated. It's too rich for formal events and entirely wrong for sports.

About

Decadent Velour opens with a dark, juicy black cherry note, quickly enveloped by a creamy, lush gardenia. As it settles, a sweet vanilla takes precedence, underscored by a surprising lactonic richness. A subtle animalic hint adds depth, rounding out this warm, decadent floral-gourmand composition.
