Pink pepper fizzes at the top, a bright metallic spark that crackles for minutes before peony’s cool, almost aqueous petals slide their way in, softening the edges without adding sweetness.

By the editors · 2 min readPink pepper fizzes at the top, a bright metallic spark that crackles for minutes before peony’s cool, almost aqueous petals slide their way in, softening the edges without adding sweetness. Tonka bean arrives early in the heart, dragging a light almond-coumarin haze that blankets the peony and links it to the incoming sandalwood, turning the composition from cool floral to creamy blond wood. Frankincse adds a quiet resinous snap, just enough smoke to keep the cream from pudding, while musk stays low, extending the wood rather than announcing itself. After two hours the pepper is gone, the flower is a skin-stain, and the dry-down is a pale almond-sandal glow that hovers close yet persists through a workday. Projection stays office-chair polite; best for spring weekdays or cool summer mornings when you want clean without citrus.
