By the editors · 2 min readPink pepper offers a dry, peppery sparkle over violet's powdery floral sweetness, creating an intriguingly textured opening. Olibanum (frankincense) emerges in the heart, adding a resinous, slightly smoky depth that bridges the top and base notes smoothly. Sandalwood provides a creamy, soft woodiness, while amber and vanilla create a warm, slightly sweet balsamic foundation that feels cozy and enduring. The composition evolves from spicy-powdery to a resinous-woody dry-down over several hours, maintaining a consistent warmth throughout. Sillage is moderate, settling to an intimate trail with good longevity, suited for fall or winter evenings and formal occasions in cool to cold weather.
