By the editors · 2 min readBlack currant and bergamot open with a bright fruity-citrus burst that quickly settles into a balanced aromatic heart. Lavender provides a clean herbal contrast to the creamy magnolia and sweet tonka bean, creating a soft floral-spicy accord. Amber and patchouli ground the dry-down with warm resinous depth and earthy texture, lending a subtle sweetness without becoming gourmand. The scent evolves linearly over several hours, maintaining moderate projection that stays close to the skin after the first hour. Best suited for spring and fall evenings, it offers reliable longevity of six to eight hours with an intimate sillage radius.
