Coccobello
Gardenia opens cleanly here, without the heavy indolic weight the flower can carry — it reads almost transparent, edged with a faint green quality that keeps it from tipping into sweetness too early.

Coconut and sea salt arrive together in the heart, pulling the composition toward something coastal rather than tropical. The vanilla stays restrained, threading through rather than dominating, and benzoin adds a subtle resinous warmth underneath.
Sandalwood and cedar in the base give the whole thing a dry, slightly powdery finish that lifts the lactonic coconut away from sunscreen territory. The overall impression is a sheer, luminous skin scent — salt, soft florals, and warm wood in a close-wearing register.
