In the heart, magnolia, jasmine and iris arrange themselves around a powdered violet — a cool, quiet floral assembly that sits more chic than romantic. As it settles, vanilla, amber and musk move into the base, smoothing the florals into something closer-fitting and faintly sweet without going gourmand. It wears polished and a touch retro, the kind of fragrance that suits a structured coat and an ironed collar more than a t-shirt and jeans.
