By the editors · 2 min readPlum opens with a juicy, slightly tart sweetness that feels more translucent than syrupy, setting a bright-fruity tone before any flowers appear. Lily of the valley steps in within minutes, adding a cool, rain-kissed green edge that keeps the plum from turning candied; freesia contributes a watery, almost pear-like freshness, while mimosa supplies a soft, pollen-yellow fluff that rounds the heart into a gentle spring bouquet. As the flowers settle, amber warms the skin with a low, sun-on-rocks glow, letting musk shear off the last fruity moisture and leave a clean, cottony aura that stays close. Projection sits at arm’s length for roughly five hours, perfect for office days or weekend brunch when the air is cool-mild.
