By the editors · 2 min readThe opening is brisk and surprising—mint cuts through citrus like a cold breath in darkness, bright but not sweet. This accord stays clean rather than confectionery, setting up an unusual contrast with what follows.
As it settles, iris emerges powdery and slightly rooty, softening the sharp edges without losing them entirely. The mint doesn't vanish so much as recede into the background like an afterthought of coolness. Tonka and amber arrive gently, warming the composition without drowning the iris in sweetness.
The overall effect is strangely nocturnal—contemplative rather than sensual, with a coolness that persists even as the base warms. It suggests solitude more than seduction, the kind of fragrance for someone comfortable spending evenings alone with a book. Neither traditionally masculine nor feminine, it reads as composed and self-contained.
