By the editors · 2 min readBlack currant and blackberry open with a tart, jammy fruity sweetness that is immediately bright and slightly tangy. Violet adds a powdery floral quality that softens the fruitiness, creating a classic berries-and-violet accord in the top notes. Heliotrope in the heart intensifies the powdery character with its almond-like, vanilla-scented floralcy that feels both cozy and slightly cosmetic. Olibanum provides a resinous, slightly smoky frankincense quality in the base, while vanilla and musk add sweetness and warmth. Patchouli contributes an earthy grounding note that prevents the composition from becoming too sweet. The scent evolves from a fruity-floral opening to a powdery oriental dry-down with good longevity of six to eight hours.
