Scent Profile

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual

Its moderate sillage and longevity make it suitable for close encounters like a date, but the strong gourmand profile might be too much for a professional office setting. It's best suited for casual, cooler weather outings or intimate evenings.

About

Imagine a rich, dark cacao pod, almost bitter, quickly softened by the juicy sweetness of mandarin and ripe peach. This isn't a shy gourmand; it dives headfirst into a creamy vanilla heart, thick and indulgent, with a generous helping of nutty praline. It's warm, enveloping, and decidedly cosy, leaving a comforting trail that's perfect for chilly days and nights.
