By the editors · 2 min readCinnamon and black-currant jam create a sweet-spiced top that feels almost candied until bergamot cuts through with a brief citrus flash. Tuberose arrives next, thick and creamy, its banana-like edge amplified by ylang-ylang while galbanum injects a sharp green resin that keeps the white flowers from turning syrupy. The base folds oud into vetiver and patchouli, producing a smoky, earthy wood accord that the amber enlarges into a warm, balsamic glow; traces of cocoa and peach linger, adding a subtle gourmand haze. Over hours the flowers recede, letting the spiced-wood core dominate while a quiet violet facet softens the edges. Projection stays at arm’s length for most of the day, making it wearable for office or fall evenings without overwhelming the room.
