By the editors · 2 min readFreesia opens cool and watery, its green petal edge immediately suggesting dew on white petals rather than sun-baked fruit. Lily of the valley steps in within minutes, amplifying the aqueous facet while adding a faint soap cleanliness; peony swells the heart with soft pink volume, keeping the composition translucent rather than creamy. Osmanthus in the base provides a quiet apricot skin tone that lingers close to fabric, turning the earlier watercolour florals into something softly suede-like after two hours. Projection stays polite, a forearm-length halo perfect for office days or humid commutes; the scent folds into laundered cotton by evening yet remains detectable when you move. Overall wear is linear but refreshingly weightless, a summer rain accord built from white flowers rather than citrus or melon.
