By the editors · 2 min readPomegranate opens with a tart, slightly green sweetness, and pistachio rounds it out almost immediately — milky, nutty, faintly powdery. The combination is more interesting than fresh-fruity; it has a soft chewiness rather than a bright sparkle.
The heart pivots into jasmine. The flower reads creamy here, not heady, leaning into the pistachio rather than away from it. There's a single-mindedness to the middle — one note doing one thing — that keeps the fragrance airy.
Lily closes it, white and clean, with a faint green-stem coolness. The drydown is short on warmth and long on lightness. Daywear, spring and summer, casual settings; better suited to skin-close wear than projection.
