By the editors · 2 min readBergamot lands first, a brisk citrus splash that shears quickly into a saline breeze. Ylang-ylang arrives within minutes, its custard-like petals soaking up the marine accord so the heart smells like warm skin after ocean spray. Tonka bean folds the composition into a soft almond-coumarin haze, blunting any sharp edges and giving the dry-down a pale blond tobacco sweetness that lingers close. Projection stays conversational for four hours before collapsing to a faint almond-salt skin veil, ideal for warm weekends or travel days when you want to smell clean rather than perfumed. The pyramid is spare, so evolution is minimal; what changes is radiance, not texture.
