By the editors · 2 min readLavender and citrus open with aromatic freshness before peach and orange blossom add fruity floralcy. The heart reveals an unusual iris-chocolate accord with raspberry sweetness and violet powderiness contrasting with narcisse greenness. Sandalwood and labdanum create a warm ambery base that supports the complex floral-gourmand structure. Development shows significant evolution from fresh top to rich dry-down over several hours. Strong projection with good longevity makes this suitable for fall and winter evening occasions.
