By the editors · 2 min readLemon opens with a sharp, acidic citrus burst that quickly recedes to reveal the floral heart. Gardenia, jasmine, and ylang-ylang create a rich, creamy white-floral accord, while tonka bean adds a sweet, coumarinic warmth. Sandalwood and patchouli provide an earthy, woody base that grounds the florals with benzoin and amber's resinous sweetness. Tuberose amplifies the floral intensity, making the dry-down deeply floral and slightly powdery. Evolution is gradual, from citrus to floral-woody, with moderate projection and good longevity for evening wear in warm seasons.
