By the editors · 2 min readCardamom and fig open together in an unexpected pairing — the spice dry and slightly smoky, the fig green-edged and milky at once. Mandarin appears as a light citrus brightness threading through the opening without dominating.
Orange blossom carries the heart with quiet floral weight, papyrus lending a dry, almost parchment-like texture that prevents the composition from becoming sweet. Ylang-ylang arrives later, its richness kept in check by the dry papyrus accord.
Suede in the base brings soft, skin-close warmth rather than a sharp leather effect. The overall impression is textural — alternating between soft and dry, creamy and papery — in a way that rewards close attention.
