By the editors · 2 min readCitrus top notes of bergamot and lemon provide a bright, sharp opening that quickly merges with aromatic clary sage. A complex floral heart of jasmine, ylang-ylang, and rose unfolds, enriched by earthy vetiver and powdery iris, creating a sophisticated bouquet. Leather dominates the base, rendered supple and warm by amber and vanillic heliotrope, yielding a refined animalic accord. The scent evolves significantly from fresh citrus to floral leather, maintaining a classic, polished character throughout its wear. Longevity is excellent, projecting assertively for hours before settling into a intimate, skin-hugging trail ideal for formal evening occasions in cooler weather.
