By the editors · 2 min readMagnolia opens with a creamy, lemon-tinged floral burst that feels almost iced. Jasmine and osmanthus rush in next, their peach-skin apricot edge sharpening the petals while heliotrope dusts everything with marzipan powder. In the base, vetiver splits the difference between damp earth and dry wood, letting vanilla-tonka thickness pool around patchouli’s cocoa mulch; a clean white musk veil keeps the confection from turning syrupy. After ninety minutes the flowers fold into the vanilla, leaving a soft, suede-like skin aura that still carries a ghost of magnolia’s cool wax. Projection stays within arm’s length, perfect for late-spring brunches or gallery openings when you want noticed-but-not-announced florals.
