Almond and orange blossom open together — the nut note is soft rather than marzipan-sharp, and the blossom keeps it from reading as purely gourmand.

By the editors · 2 min readAlmond and orange blossom open together — the nut note is soft rather than marzipan-sharp, and the blossom keeps it from reading as purely gourmand. The combination is powdery from the start.
Lily of the valley in the heart introduces a clean, slightly green floral note that lightens the overall register briefly. Vanilla and patchouli begin to assert themselves as the composition develops, shifting it toward a warmer, creamier direction.
Cedar and musk close things out with a dry, lightly woody finish. The overall profile is soft, nutty-sweet, and powdery — understated and wearable without being assertive. A casual daytime fragrance that stays close to skin.
