By the editors · 2 min readBasil and lime open with a bracing green-citrus snap that feels like crushed leaves and squeezed zest. Ginger quickly warms the heart, threading peppery heat through cool lavender while nutmeg dusts everything with a soft brown spice. Tonka bean arrives early in the base, pumping sweet coumarin and almond facets that fuse with coconut milk to create a creamy tropical accord; patchouli adds earthy leafiness and cedar keeps the structure dry so the cream never cloys. Over two hours the ginger fades, letting the coconut-tonka tandem dominate until only a faint blond wood and vanillic skin haze remains. Projection stays polite, radiating a low herbaceous-sweet cloud for about four hours before tucking close to fabric.
