Bergamot and jasmine open with bright clarity before the composition pivots toward something denser — a bruised, velvety peach over ylang-ylang that feels almost edible but never quite sweet.

As the drydown begins, oakmoss pulls everything earthward. Cinnamon threads through without dominating, while vetiver and ambergris provide a dry, resinous anchor. The chypre structure becomes unmistakable: that specific tension between bright florals above and moss-drenched earth below.
The extrait concentration deepens all of this considerably — the peach becomes richer, the moss more tenacious, the overall character more deliberate and intimate. It wears close to skin but radiates quietly for hours.
