Scent Journey
Candied cherry and pepper dominate. The cherry is vivid and sweet, with the pepper providing a fresh-spicy contrast. This phase is the most extroverted and attention-grabbing, lasting roughly 0-30 minutes.
Oud and incense emerge, and the lactones soften the transition. The cherry begins to fade, and the fragrance becomes warmer, woodier, and slightly smoky. Projection is still moderate but starts to pull closer to the skin around 1-2 hours.
The resinous and mossy base takes over. Benzoin, cistus, labdanum, and cypriol/nagarmotha create a balsamic, earthy, and slightly smoky finish. The cherry is largely gone by the 2-3 hour mark, while the base persists for 7-9 hours total.
Performance Dashboard
7-9 hours. The parfum concentration supports a long wear, though the cherry opening fades within about 2-3 hours. The resinous/mossy base is the most persistent part of the composition.
Moderate for the first 1-2 hours, then close to skin. If you want a fragrance that announces itself across a room, this is not it; if you prefer a personal scent bubble, it fits well.
Moderate. Sirène leaves a noticeable but not room-filling trail. It is best described as an intimate-to-moderate scent after the first hour.

Layering Ideas
- Layer with a vanilla or tonka bean fragrance to soften the oud and extend the sweet base.
- Pair with a rose soliflore to amplify the cherry-rose effect.
- Avoid layering with fresh citrus, which can clash with the resinous drydown.
