Kristine Kristina
Kristine opens with lily of the valley alone — green, watery, slightly soapy, the muguet treated as the whole opening rather than a single voice in a bouquet.

By the editors · 2 min readKristine opens with lily of the valley alone — green, watery, slightly soapy, the muguet treated as the whole opening rather than a single voice in a bouquet. It reads gentle and a little plain in the first minutes.
The heart is a classic powdery floral: petitgrain's green-bitter twist sharpens jasmine, with violet and rose layered behind. Violet pulls the composition toward a vintage cosmetic register — face powder, lipstick — typical of Riga-house formulas of the period.
The drydown is dry and slightly resinous: white musk, sandalwood, and galbanum, the galbanum still green this far in. A composed, modest perfume that fits with daywear and cool weather rather than announcing itself.
