By the editors · 2 min readGrapefruit and bergamot open with a tart, slightly bitter citrus edge that immediately slices through the fig's natural sweetness. The heart brings black currant's green-juicy bite and damask rose's soft petal cream, creating a layered fruit profile where rose's pollen dust keeps the berries from turning jammy. Raspberry in the base adds a seedy, almost wine-like depth that darkens the composition while maintaining its tangy character. On skin, the citrus burns off within thirty minutes, leaving the currant-rose tandem to dominate for two hours before the raspberry settles into a muted, skin-close whisper that smells like crushed bramble leaves and faint berry stain. Projection stays arm-length for the first hour, then hugs skin moderate sillage that works for casual spring days or low-key summer evenings when you want something bright but not sugary.
