By the editors · 2 min readLemon opens with a sharp, clean citrus spark that quickly recedes to make way for the floral heart. Lily of the valley and rose create a fresh, slightly green floral accord that is supported by the dry woodiness of cedar. This floral-wood combination forms the core of the scent, offering a balanced and classic aromatic character. The base introduces tonka bean's sweet warmth and amber's resinous depth, which blend with the earthy, damp quality of oakmoss. Sandalwood adds a creamy, smooth texture that softens the mossy dryness in the final dry-down. Projection is moderate initially but becomes intimate after two hours, suitable for spring formal or work occasions.
