By the editors · 2 min readViolet dominates the opening, presenting a cool, slightly woody floral that feels more like pressed petals than syrupy bloom. Bamboo follows immediately, adding a hollow green crunch that keeps the violet airy rather than powdery. Jasmine enters in the heart, lifting the composition with a clean white-floral glow while ambrette seed supplies a soft, musky pear-skin warmth that blunts any sharp edges. The fragrance stays linear: violet-bamboo stay audible through the wear, slowly dimming into a skin-close musk that smells like steamed rice and washed cotton. Projection sits at arm’s length for three hours, then collapses into fabric-like whispers ideal for quiet office days or humid spring mornings when you want something present but never intrusive.
