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.

Its moderate sillage and fresh, clean character make it versatile for casual settings and even the gym. While some find it too intense for high heat, its general 'shampoo' vibe leans away from formal events, but it's acceptable for an office if applied lightly.

About

Opening with a crisp, slightly tart apple note, this fragrance quickly transitions into a blooming rose heart. A warm, resinous amber provides a grounding base, giving the floral and fruity elements a surprising depth and a clean, 'just-out-of-the-shower' quality. It's a straightforward, unpretentious composition.
