By the editors · 2 min readNeroli opens with a crystalline citrus-floral brightness that feels slightly waxy, immediately announcing a clean white palette. Ylang-ylang folds in a custard-sweet, banana-tinged creaminess that softens the neroli’s edge and pulls the heart toward tropical yellow-floral territory. As the bouquet settles, sandalwood steps forward with milky wood that smooths the ylang’s lactones while oakmoss adds a cool forest-floor bitterness, grounding the composition. Musk emerges last, diffusing the earlier florals into a hazy, skin-close veil that keeps the moss from turning too dry or earthy. Projection stays polite, hovering just inside personal space for six hours, making it office-safe yet quietly sensual. Spring and early-summer days, linen and open windows, feel like its natural habitat.
