By the editors · 2 min readOpens with a soft, fuzzy peach against orange and bergamot — fruit treated like velvet, not juice. The aldehydic lift is immediate, giving the top a slightly soapy, retro shimmer.
The heart blooms into a dense floral bouquet — jasmine and ylang-ylang carrying the volume, violet adding a sweet powdery curl, rose holding the centre. Nutmeg threads warmth through the petals. Then the base unfurls slowly: incense smoke wrapping around vanilla and benzoin, cedar and sandalwood underpinning a balsamic, almost church-like depth. Musk softens the resins. The whole construction projects with old-school weight, lingering long on skin and longer on cloth.
Overall a powdery-balsamic oriental floral with a smoky resinous backbone — heady and unmistakably antique in shape.
