By the editors · 2 min readCinnamon opens hot and bark-dry, crackling against bergamot’s thin citrus sparkle to create an immediate spiced-coffee shop air. The heart folds jasmine’s indolic creaminess and rose’s honeyed petals into benzoin’s vanilla-tinged resin, softening the spice while keeping a roasted edge that anticipates the base. Coffee lands not as fresh beans but as dark, slightly bitter espresso grounds that absorb the benzoin and floral sugars, turning the accord into a sweetened Turkish coffee with persistent spice dust. Over hours the coffee note dominates, its roasted oils slowly shedding the floral residues until only a faint cinnamon-coffee skin scent remains close to the wrist. Projection stays intimate, projecting no farther than a café table, and the wear span reaches about six hours on average skin.
