Grapefruit opens the fragrance, sharp and bitter, without the sweet roundness an orange would give in the same place.

Juniper berry joins it. Resinous and lightly peppery, it gives the opening a dry edge that citrus notes alone would not produce.

Nutmeg and incense occupy the heart. One warm and powdery, the other smoky and mineral, they prepare the shift toward the wood.

Vetiver anchors the base, earthy and smoky, wrapped in white musks that soften its earthiness without masking it.

Among the regulated allergens, the label names coumarin, isoeugenol, hexyl cinnamal and hydroxycitronellal; sunscreen filters are also included, with no colorant at all.

On October 1, 2026 the formula restored by Kurkdjian takes the shelf, and the one that had been sold there disappears.

What the label declares

The list the house publishes for the Dioriginals version has twenty-nine entries. A woody amber note and a musk, tetramethyl acetyloctahydronaphthalenes and hexamethylindanopyran, head it, ahead of limonene and acetyl cedrene.

Bitter orange peel and patchouli are the two essential oils named; anethole, coumarin, vanillin and camphor complete the fragrant substances. A UV filter protects the juice, with no colorant declared.
