By the editors · 2 min readCreamy gardenia dominates the opening with its lush, tropical white floral intensity that feels rich and heady. Jasmine adds a narcotic floral depth while narcissus contributes a green, slightly earthy counterpoint to the floral heart. Vetiver provides a dry, woody base that grounds the florals with an earthy texture. Vanilla and musk soften the dry-down, adding a subtle sweetness and a clean, skin-hugging trail. The scent remains predominantly floral throughout, with moderate projection that recedes to an intimate aura after the first hour. Ideal for spring evenings, this composition offers a linear white floral character with a warm, musky finish.
