By the editors · 2 min readA dense aromatic top of mint, sage, lavender, basil, jasmine, and galbanum opens green and herbal, with a noticeable cool-mint snap and floral lift from the tuberose and narcissus alongside. The effect is layered and immediately complex.
The heart shifts spicy-floral as cinnamon, nutmeg, violet, rose, and lily of the valley unfold, the cinnamon adding warm bite over the still-present herbal frame. Black currant gives a faint tart-fruity edge. The base then unloads — tonka, sandalwood, oakmoss, incense, coconut, leather, vetiver, labdanum, benzoin, amber, cedar, patchouli, musk — building a powdery, mossy, slightly leathery finish with coconut adding a creamy lactonic note that softens the whole assembly.
Overall a dense aromatic-fougère with creamy gourmand depth. Made for cool evenings.
