By the editors · 2 min readLemon and bergamot open cleanly, providing a citrus frame that feels polished rather than sharp. The brightness is brief but it sets an expectation of refinement that the rest of the composition broadly meets.
Iris dominates the heart, pulling jasmine and ylang-ylang into its powdery, slightly rooty orbit. The rose stays in the background, adding color without asserting itself. Together the florals read as a formal, dusted bouquet — structured and unhurried.
Tonka bean, benzoin, and vanilla form a warm resinous base that leans amber-sweet without becoming cloying. Patchouli provides a hint of earthiness underneath, preventing the drydown from going purely confectionary. The overall character is polished, powdery, and close-wearing.
