John Gustav Homme Scandant Le

Bergamot gives the opening a bright, zesty energy, quick to lift the mood. Coconut follows in the heart, soft and buttery, bringing a tropical smoothness without heaviness. The base settles into tonka bean, warm and lightly sweet, with sandalwood adding a woody depth that keeps the composition grown-up and refined as it wears through the afternoon.

Rated at six to eight hours, it lasts through a working day. It suits spring, summer and autumn, and its relaxed, sophisticated feel makes it a natural fit for the office, daily wear and casual evenings with friends. The compact 50ml bottle slips easily into a bag for a top-up later on.
