By the editors · 2 min readLemon and bergamot open the composition with a clean, classic citrus lift. The top is brief and serves as polish before the floral middle takes over.
The heart is unusually rich for what reads as a transparent composition. Petitgrain reinforces the bitter-orange green thread, neroli adds soft white floral brightness, jasmine a slightly indolic depth, and myrrh introduces a quiet smoky-resinous edge that grounds the flowers. The middle bridges fresh and warm registers.
Patchouli alone closes it, lending a clean modern earthy-woody finish that anchors the composition without becoming heavy. Overall: a polished citrus-floral with patchouli base, moderate projection, decent longevity, and a versatile spring-summer character that leans elegant rather than statement-making.
