By the editors · 2 min readPear drips with anise, the duo sheared by cardamom’s metallic green edge, creating a cool, liquor-iced opening that feels almost effervescent against skin. Oud slides in early, its tarry facets wrapping the cedar heart, turning the fruit-spice sparkle into a dry, resinous wood panel lit from within by occasional flashes of sweet anise. Orris and iris arrive together, powdering the oud’s rough bark until the scent becomes a suede-grey iris-wood with a faintly salty skin-trace. Amber warms the base but never sweetens; instead it stretches the iris dust into a papery, grey-amber glow that lingers close. Projection stays conversational, perfect for cool spring offices or gallery evenings when you want quiet wood-iris polish without dessert.
