By the editors · 2 min readLemon and bergamot open with a brisk citrus burst that quickly settles into a clean aromatic freshness. Lavender emerges as the core heart note, providing a classic herbal and slightly powdery floral character that dominates the mid-phase. Musk underpins the composition with a soft skin-scent base that adds subtle warmth without heaviness. The scent remains relatively linear after the top notes fade, maintaining a consistent aromatic fougère profile throughout its wear. Projection starts moderately but recedes to an intimate radius within the first hour, lasting about four to six hours on skin. Best suited for casual daytime wear in spring and summer, particularly in warm or humid conditions.
