By the editors · 2 min readPeach and bergamot create a velvety citrus opening where the fruit’s fuzz softens the bergamot’s sparkle, preparing the way for a lush white-floral heart. Tuberose dominates the bouquet, its creamy lactonic heft pulling jasmine, ylang-ylang, lily of the valley and rose into one unified, slightly waxy bouquet that feels almost over-ripe. As the petals settle, tonka bean folds a toasted almond facet into sandalwood’s dry cream, while incense threads a cool, smoky ribbon through benzoin’s honeyed amber and patchouli’s earthy sweetness, leaving a powdery musk veil that keeps the flor-rich memory alive. Projection stays within arm’s length for 6-8 hours, making it a confident autumn dinner scent.
