By the editors · 2 min readLemon and bergamot offer a crisp, effervescent citrus opening that is bright and slightly tart, though short-lived. A rich heart of jasmine, rose, and violet creates a powdery floral bouquet, with violet’s iononic character particularly prominent. Oud adds a dry, woody accent that contrasts with the florals, while tonka bean introduces a sweet, coumarinic warmth. The base is a creamy sandalwood foundation amplified by oakmoss’s earthy greenness and almond’s nutty, marzipan-like sweetness. Vanilla and musk soften the dry-down into a smooth, skin-close powder with a subtle woody undertone. This evolves linearly over hours with intimate sillage, ideal for cooler weather and formal or work settings.
