A sharp lemon opening cuts cleanly before the heart takes over with a dense, tropical floral cluster — ylang-ylang and jasmine dominate, supported by lily of the valley and rose.

By the editors · 2 min readA sharp lemon opening cuts cleanly before the heart takes over with a dense, tropical floral cluster — ylang-ylang and jasmine dominate, supported by lily of the valley and rose. Ginger and cardamom add dry warmth without tipping into sweetness, while honey gives the middle a faintly animalic richness.
The base is heavy and deliberate: sandalwood and cedar anchor coconut and vanilla into something almost gourmand, but civet and vetiver keep it from drifting too soft. Oakmoss and patchouli pull the whole composition toward an earthy, dense drydown.
Overall this wears like a humid, animalic floral-oriental — warm-weather richness with a distinctly retro-animalic edge.
