By the editors · 2 min readFreesia and bergamot create a bright, slightly powdery floral-citrus opening. A dense bouquet of jasmine, ylang-ylang, and rose unfolds, rich and sweet with heliotrope's almond-like powderiness. Clove adds a subtle warm-spicy accent that prevents the florals from becoming too cloying. Sandalwood and benzoin provide a creamy, resinous base that blends with amber and musk for warmth. The scent evolves gradually, becoming softer and more skin-like over time. It projects well for evening wear in cooler seasons, suited for dates or formal events.
