By the editors · 2 min readBergamot's crisp citrus introduces a cool brightness that quickly yields to violet's powdery floralcy, creating an aromatic and slightly candied opening. Iris emerges prominently in the heart, its rooty earthiness blending with violet's powder to form a soft, cosmetic-like accord. Amber and vanilla warm the base with a resinous sweetness, while patchouli adds a subtle earthy grounding that prevents excessive powderiness. The scent evolves linearly from fresh-powdery to warm-ambered, projecting intimately for four to five hours with a composed elegance suitable for formal occasions in cooler weather.
