By the editors · 2 min readLavender opens clean and slightly camphoraceous, immediately softened by heliotrope’s almond-powder facet that muffles the herb’s edges. Coffee slips in quietly, lending a roasted bitterness that keeps the heart from turning pastry, while amber and vanilla swell underneath, creating a warm, almost nougat-like cushion. Patchouli arrives late, earthy and lightly chocolate, extending the coffee’s roast into the dry-down and preventing the vanilla from becoming frosting. On skin the scent stays close, projecting a low ambered haze for roughly six hours, ideal for cool autumn days or casual office wear where sweetness stays polite.
