By the editors · 2 min readYuzu and lemon open with a sharp, juicy citrus that feels almost pulpy, the yuzu giving the lemon a slightly grapefruit-like bitterness. With orange blossom, mandarin and lychee in the wider list, the upper register feels broadly tropical-citrus, sweet but not heavy.
The base brings in caramel against sandalwood, an unusual contrast where the woody dryness keeps the caramel from turning sticky. Oakmoss in the wider list hints at a faint mossy edge to the drydown. Overall the character is a bright citrus that softens into a creamy caramel-wood finish, leaning easy-wearing and summery in the first hours and ending in a quiet sweet-skin glow.
