By the editors · 2 min readPeach and apricot open in a bright, slightly fuzzy burst — the kind of stone fruit that reads immediately edible rather than abstract. There is an underlying warmth from the start that hints at what's coming below.
Coconut in the heart pulls the fragrance into tropical-creamy territory, thickening the fruit rather than contrasting it. Vanilla in the base locks everything into a soft, dessert-like register — sweet but not aggressive, with a lactonic quality that makes it feel almost like warm custard or cream.
The overall character is sunny and uncomplicated: a straightforward gourmand built around fruit and cream that wears close to the skin.
