By the editors · 2 min readBasil introduces a green herbal freshness that quickly merges with ylang-ylang's tropical floral sweetness. Lily of the valley and rose create a powdery floral heart that softens the initial brightness. Benzoin and vanilla build a warm balsamic base that gradually deepens over several hours. Patchouli adds earthy texture while musk provides a clean skin-hugging trail. The composition evolves from aromatic green to creamy floral-amber with moderate projection. Longevity extends through six hours with a gentle sillage that suits spring evenings.
