By the editors · 2 min readLemon and bergamot open with a sharp citrus burst that quickly settles into a green herbal freshness from basil. A dense bouquet of tuberose, jasmine, and rose emerges, creating a rich white floral heart with powdery violet and narcissus accents. Vetiver and cedar provide an earthy woody base, while benzoin and amber add a warm resinous sweetness softened by vanilla and heliotrope. The composition evolves from bright freshness to a complex floral-oriental drydown with considerable powder and warmth. Projection is moderate initially, receding to a skin-close trail with good longevity over several hours. Best for spring and fall evenings or formal occasions in cool weather.
