By the editors · 2 min readOsmanthus dominates the opening with its apricot-skin sweetness and faint leather undertone, immediately announcing a yellow-floral character. Jasmine enters next, amplifying the white-floral radiance while adding indolic depth that keeps the osmanthus from turning syrupy. Saffron threads a dry, papery spice through the heart, sharpening the florals and lending a muted tobacco-like facet that contrasts with the lactonic fruit. Cedar in the base provides clean, pencil-shave woods that anchor the composition without adding weight, letting the osmanthus-apricot nuance linger for hours. The scent stays close to skin, projecting a soft halo that reads as elegant rather than diffusive, perfect for warm spring dinners or summer gallery openings where subtlety is preferred.
