By the editors · 2 min readLemon and grapefruit open with a sharp, bright citrus burst that feels energizing and slightly tart on initial contact. Bergamot adds a subtle aromatic lift that tempers the acidity with a rounder, warmer citrus character. Jasmine and ylang-ylang emerge quickly, their white floral richness blending seamlessly with the citrus top notes to create a luminous floral-citrus accord. Orange blossom contributes a honeyed sweetness that deepens the floral heart without overwhelming its transparency. Vetiver provides an earthy, green anchor in the base, while musk adds a clean skin-scent quality that pulls the composition inward. Longevity extends moderately for four to six hours with a projection that starts intimate and settles close to the skin. Best suited for spring and summer daytime wear in warm conditions.
