By the editors · 2 min readNeroli and bergamot at the top, mandarin lifting through underneath — a citrus opening warmed by orange blossom rather than sharpened. The heart pivots into iris, cool and slightly powdery, against the orange blossom's white-floral bloom.
Sandalwood, vetiver, and musk close the perfume out: woody-earthy in a quiet register, the iris carrying powdery character down through the base. The composition reads pulled-together and unfussy — daytime perfumery at its most confident, where every note knows what it's there for. Suited to office wear and warm weather, where you want something gentle but specific.
