By the editors · 2 min readOrange, lemon, and bergamot create a zesty, effervescent opening that is bright and immediately uplifting on application. Anise adds a subtle licorice-like aromatic twist that intertwines with the citrus, providing an intriguing contrast. The heart reveals a lush fruity bouquet where pineapple and melon dominate, supported by a complex floral blend of jasmine, peach, lily of the valley, iris, and rose. This mid-phase is richly textured and sweetly floral-fruity without becoming cloying. Sandalwood and vetiver form a dry, woody base that is subtly smoothed by amber, offering a clean and slightly powdery dry-down. The scent evolves noticeably over hours, projecting strongly initially before becoming more personal. Ideal for spring and summer formal occasions in warm conditions.
