For Women
A wild clash of spicy fruits, lush florals, and warm woods—Instinct D’Animale opens with juicy pineapple, mandarin and green leafy freshness. The heart blooms with a rich occult floral bouquet—rose, violet, lily-of-the-valley and exotic nutmeg adding unexpected depth. It dries down into soft musk, earthy patchouli, oakmoss, and smoky civet for a bold, lingering finish.

Scent Story
Instinct D’Animale launches with bright tropical fruit and green freshness—pineapple and mandarin lifted by crisp green notes. As it evolves, the floral heart emerges: rose, violet and powdery lily-of-the-valley, warmed by the spice of nutmeg. The dry-down bares the animalic side — patchouli and oakmoss deepen the scent; musk and civet add raw sensuality, leaving a dark soft trail that demands attention.
Wearability & Lifestyle
Ideal for evenings, nights out or cooler weather—fall and winter are where this scent shines strongest. Also great for bold events, dramatic settings, or whenever you want to feel fiercely confident. Pair with leather, dark tones, or outfits with a bit of edge to match its daring character.
