By the editors · 2 min readCardamom crackles first, cool and slightly sweet, setting a brisk aromatic tone before violet leaf’s green metal shears the opening. Iris arrives quickly, dusting the green edges with dry, chalky powder that blunts cardamom’s bite and prepares a smooth suede hand-off to the leather heart. That leather is matte, thin, more glove than saddle, stitched to the iris so the two read as a pale grey suede accord rather than separate notes. Amber warms the base, a clean, translucent resin that lets vanilla’s soft pod round the angles without ever turning edible; the result stays cool-toned and discreet. Projection hugs shirt-cuffs for four hours, then settles into a powdered-skin trace perfect for summer office air-conditioning or a spring train commute.
