By the editors · 2 min readPetitgrain and pink pepper open green and dry, the petitgrain lending a slightly bitter twig character that keeps the pepper from feeling decorative. Magnolia and ivy carry the heart through a cool, leafy, almost shaded floral middle — more park than penthouse.
Tonka, sandalwood, vanilla, and musk warm the close into a creamy beige drydown, the gourmand register staying restrained rather than dessert-sweet. The result reads as a more subdued, woodier counterpoint to the original 5th Avenue's loud floral signature.
