By the editors · 2 min readA complex aldehydic-aromatic opening unfolds: lavender and lily lifted by lemon and bergamot, with galbanum cutting through with its sharp green-resin bite. The first impression is bracing and slightly old-world, signaling a layered classical structure.
The heart blooms into a full white-floral bouquet — tuberose creamy and indolic, jasmine rich, ylang-ylang banana-soft, lily-of-the-valley dewy, orange blossom honeyed, iris cool and rooty, rose rounding the chord. The base is dense and chypre-leaning: oakmoss earthy and bitter-green, leather worn-soft, sandalwood creamy, vetiver dry, frankincense smoky-resinous, with patchouli and amber anchoring the warmth. Projection is generous, longevity excellent, the arc slow and architectural across many hours.
Overall a baroque mossy floral-leather with galbanum-green spine.
