By the editors · 2 min readLemon and bergamot open with a quiet, polished sweetness — citrus that has been smoothed rather than zested, the kind of brightness that reads as clean linen rather than fruit.
The heart drifts toward gardenia and jasmine, soft-focus white florals carried on a vanilla undertone that surfaces early. There is no green edge, no indolic weight — the flowers sit close, more lotion than bouquet.
The dry-down is where the perfume settles into its argument: orris and amberwood thickening the vanilla into something warm and creamy, musk smoothing the seams. It wears like a cashmere base layer — discreet, soft, reliably comforting on a long day.
