By the editors · 2 min readViolet leaf and bergamot create a crisp green-citrus opening with nutmeg adding a subtle warm spice accent. Clary sage contributes an aromatic herbal quality that bridges the top notes to the floral heart. Jasmine and lily of the valley form a classic floral bouquet while oakmoss provides an earthy green depth alongside cedar's dry woodiness. The base reveals tonka bean's sweet coumarin character blended with amber's warmth and musk's softness over sandalwood. This composition evolves significantly from fresh aromatic to a powdery floral-woody dry-down with mossy undertones. Sillage remains moderate for four hours before settling close to skin, ideal for fall formal occasions.
