By the editors · 2 min readPink pepper and bergamot create a bright, slightly spicy citrus opening that feels energetic and fresh. Magnolia, jasmine, and ylang-ylang blend into a rich floral heart, with rose adding a classic, slightly powdery accent to the white floral bouquet. Patchouli grounds the florals with an earthy, dry texture, while castoreum introduces a subtle animalic warmth in the base. The transition from fresh-spicy top to floral-earthy dry-down is smooth and well-integrated over two to three hours. Sillage is moderate initially, becoming more intimate as the animalic base notes emerge. Best worn in spring or fall for daytime or special occasions.
