By the editors · 2 min readLemon and bergamot provide a crisp citrus opening that feels bright and slightly tart. Rose emerges quickly, adding a soft floral heart that is powdery and romantic, blending with the citrus notes. Tonka bean and vanilla create a sweet, creamy base that warms the composition and adds a comforting resinous quality. Guaiac wood contributes a dry, smoky woodiness that balances the sweetness and adds depth. Musk ensures the dry-down remains soft and skin-close, with the scent evolving from citrus-floral to a warm, vanillic wood. Projection is moderate and longevity is good, making it suitable for daytime wear in cooler seasons.
