By the editors · 2 min readCardamom crackles atop lemon and bergamot, its cool spice shearing the citrus into a bright, metallic edge that smells like chilled gin. Jasmine and ylang-ylang pour in next, their buttery petals softening the opening without ever turning sweet, while lily-of-the-valley and violet add a faintly aqueous green shimmer that keeps the bouquet airy. Rose arrives late, a dry, papery accent rather than a lush bloom, letting the yellow florals stay in charge. The dry-down is mostly sandalwood, pale and creamy, cushioned by a quiet benzoin that dusts the skin with soft balsam and holds the white petals for hours. Projection stays within arm’s length, perfect for spring office days or a cool summer brunch.
