The heart turns wood-heavy: sandalwood, guaiac, vetiver, cedar, patchouli, plus ylang-ylang and heliotrope softening the timber edge. It reads as a green-creamy woody, more shaded grove than dry forest.
The base of tonka bean, vanilla and musk warms the close without going gourmand. The arc is broad and unhurried — coconut-galbanum brightness, then a long woody sit, then a soft sweet exhale. It works through cool weather and wears more relaxed than its name might suggest.
