By the editors · 2 min readLemon and bergamot open clean and a little tart — a citrus brightness that signals the white-tea family without leaning sour.
Neroli, jasmine, and orange blossom carry the heart, blurring into a soft white-floral haze. Neroli does the heavy lifting: bittersweet, faintly green, the kind of orange-flower that smells more like the tree's leaves than its blossom. Osmanthus drifts through, adding a pale apricot warmth that keeps the citrus accent alive into the middle.
The base swaps the expected vanilla for ambroxan and cedar — mineral, slightly salty, dry. Musk smooths it down to skin. A thin, modern dry-down designed to read as freshly showered for hours rather than perfumed.
