The heart settles into a textbook Eastern-bloc floral middle: jasmine, violet, and rose, rendered powdery and slightly soapy. There's none of the fruity decoration that later Dzintars formulas would lean on; the bouquet is plain, dressy, dated in a pleasant way.
It finishes on a substantial chypre-adjacent base — sandalwood, vetiver, labdanum, patchouli, osmanthus, musk — the labdanum and patchouli giving it real weight. A heavier composition than the house's later releases, and a better illustration of where the perfumery sat in the late 80s.
