By the editors · 2 min readThe opening is a ripe, sun-warmed blend of pineapple and melon sweetened by blackcurrant, landing somewhere between tropical smoothie and candied fruit. It's unapologetically cheerful, the sort of brightness that feels deliberate rather than accidental.
As it settles, the composition pulls in layers of white florals—magnolia, freesia, lily of the valley—tempered by the green snap of basil and a powdery heliotrope that softens the edges. The florals never quite overtake the fruit; instead, they wrap around it, creating a plush, almost confectionery effect. The base brings sandalwood, vanilla, and a whisper of caramel, grounding the sweetness without eliminating it.
This is a fragrance that leans confidently into early-2000s femininity: sweet but not cloying, playful but structured. It works best for someone comfortable with presence, someone who doesn't mind being noticed before they're seen.
