By the editors · 2 min readTuberose, jasmine, and narcissus open directly without a citrus or green introduction — a rich, heady white floral from the first moment. Narcissus adds a slightly waxy, green-floral quality that tempers the creaminess of the tuberose. The combination is lush and full.
Violet leaf and galbanum in the heart shift the composition toward a green, slightly bitter quality — these notes provide structural contrast against the opulent florals, giving the composition a slightly sharp mid-section.
Sandalwood and musk close with warmth and skin-closeness. The result is a classic green-floral composition: heady white florals with a bitter green backbone and a soft, woody-musky finish. Well-suited to spring and moderate weather, and elegant in formal or special contexts.
