By the editors · 2 min readChinese plum enters with a watery, slightly tart sweetness distinct from the sugary plum of commercial fruitchoulis. Lavender follows directly — cool and herbal, cutting through the plum's softness with precision. Orris in the base adds powdery depth, violet-adjacent and dry, pulling the scent inward rather than projecting outward. The minimalism means every note is audible; their interaction — fruit, herb, powder — stays quietly compelling against skin. Part of Estée Lauder's 2021 Luxury Fragrance Collection, designed to reward closeness rather than fill a room.
