By the editors · 2 min readBlack currant and blood orange open with a tart-sweet fruit punch — the currant gives a slightly sulfurous bite, the orange a juicy red-citrus warmth. The opening is fruity and energetic, pulling the bouquet toward dessert from the start.
Jasmine and lily-of-the-valley fill the heart with a fresh white-floral cushion, balancing the fruit without quieting it. The combination reads ripe and feminine, leaning toward flirtatious rather than refined.
Sandalwood and benzoin anchor the base with a creamy resinous warmth, sweetening the drydown into something close to caramelized fruit on warm wood. Lasting moderate, projecting at intimate range — a flanker built for evening dates rather than office wear, simple and direct.
