By the editors · 2 min readThere's no top tier to speak of — the fragrance opens directly at the floral heart, jasmine and rose foregrounded, with iris and violet supplying the powdery midfield. That structure ages it precisely: a Regency-era idea of perfume, before the citrus-heavy top became standard.
The base is just amber and musk. The lack of a wood or moss anchor leaves the violet-iris combination unusually exposed, which is what gives it its character — a soft, slightly cosmetic powderiness sitting on quiet warmth, with rose and jasmine drifting through. It wears soft, close to the skin, and disappears within hours. As a piece it reads more as a relic of a style than as a competing modern floral.
