By the editors · 2 min readNeroli arrives first — bitter-orange flower with the cool, slightly green edge that tells you this isn't a sweet floral. The opening is bright but not sugared, more like a spray of orange-blossom water than the heady candied version.
In the heart, gardenia and jasmine push the white-flower load up without tipping into indolic territory. The composition stays sun-warmed and translucent, the way a neroli-led structure should — petals you can almost see through, not a thick floral bouquet.
The drydown thins to clean musk. Skin-close at the end, polite, summer-leaning. A linear soliflore-ish read suited to hot days, casual wear, anyone who wants a white floral that doesn't shout.
