About this fragrance
Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.
Launched in 2008, John Galliano's debut feminine fragrance is a floral aldehyde that opens with a shimmering trio of aldehydes, angelica, and bergamot. The heart unfolds into a classic bouquet: violet, iris, rose, lavender, and peony, lending a powdery, romantic character. The base settles into a warm, smoky blend of incense, amber, patchouli, musk, and Virginia cedar, with amber and powdery accords dominating the composition.
This scent suits collectors who appreciate vintage-style aldehydic florals with a modern, resinous twist. Its balance of bright top notes and deep, incense-laced base makes it versatile for evening wear or cooler months. Ideal for those who enjoy powdery, woody fragrances with a hint of smoke, it stands as a distinctive piece from the late 2000s.

Price ranges are compiled from our own recorded transactions, not from asking prices.
A batch code cannot prove authenticity on its own, but it can expose contradictions — a code that decodes to a date before the fragrance existed, or a bottle and box that disagree.
