By the editors · 2 min readBergamot, violet, and anise open in a complex tangle — the anise licorice-sweet, the violet cool and powdery, the bergamot quickly faded. There's an old-perfumery quality to the opening, almost candy-bitter.
The heart is dense: cinnamon's dry warm bite, leather mid-pyramid (unusual placement), violet leaf green and sharp, jasmine and rose adding a heady floral backbone, iris and heliotrope powdering everything down. It reads layered and somewhat antique.
The base settles into leather, almond, vanilla, iris, violet, and musk — a powdered-leather-almond drydown that pulls everything into a soft cosmetic warmth. Overall character: a dressed-up violet-leather with cinnamon and almond underneath. Long, slow development.
