By the editors · 2 min readThe opening is generous—bergamot, orange, apricot, and ylang-ylang land together in a bright, fruity-floral burst with saffron adding a spiced golden layer beneath. The heart is ambitious: jasmine and lily of the valley provide the floral center while patchouli and iris pull in differing directions, patchouli earthy and deep, iris cool and powdery, caramel holding them in a sweet register. The base of moss, sandalwood, and amber grounds everything in classical attar territory. Dense without being airless, it rewards slow wearing.
