Cafe
Coffee opens with a roasted bitterness that immediately meets orange and lemon’s bright oils, creating an espresso-spritz effect rather than a sweet latte.

By the editors · 2 min readCoffee opens with a roasted bitterness that immediately meets orange and lemon’s bright oils, creating an espresso-spritz effect rather than a sweet latte. Lily of the valley and orange blossom arrive quickly, their clean white petals lifting the roast into a floral-caffeine haze while violet adds a cool, powdery iris nuance that keeps the heart airy. Vanilla softens the edges, cedar provides dry wood shavings, and clean musk stretches the accord into a skin-warmed café-crema finish that smells like spilled coffee on a florist’s wooden counter. Projection stays within arm’s length for about five hours, tilting casual and daytime; the citrus keeps it workable in warm weather, yet the roast and vanilla make it comforting when temperatures dip.
