By the editors · 2 min readBergamot provides a crisp citrus opening that quickly yields to a soft floral heart. Peony and freesia create a fresh white-floral accord while violet adds a powdery texture to the rose. The base transitions smoothly into a warm woody dry-down with sandalwood's creamy texture. Tonka bean and vanilla introduce a gentle sweetness that balances the floral powdery character. Wear remains linear after the first hour with minimal evolution beyond the initial floral-woody shift. Projection stays intimate and close to skin with moderate longevity around four to six hours. Best suited for spring daytime casual or work occasions.
