By the editors · 2 min readOpens with a quick flare of citrus and red fruit that lifts the composition before stepping aside. The real story is in the heart: four white flowers handled without apology — jasmine and ylang-ylang contributing their characteristic richness, orange blossom a neroli-adjacent brightness, and Grasse tuberose anchoring the arrangement with an almost narcotic weight.
Sandalwood and vanilla ease the transition into a warm, lightly sweet base that keeps the florals close to skin. In the Parfum concentration, the flowers register more densely than in the EDP; projection is compact but persistent. Most at home on cool evenings or in formal settings where something rich but not loud is wanted.
