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.

About

Full Moon Over The Desert opens with a sharp burst of bergamot and pink pepper, quickly giving way to a bold, almost animalic leather. The heart introduces a powdery iris that tempers the intensity, creating a smoky, ash-like quality. As it dries down, a subtle caramel sweetness emerges, blending with earthy evernyl and woody notes, evoking a dry, desert-like landscape under a dark sky.
