By the editors · 2 min readLemon and bergamot deliver a sharp, effervescent citrus opening that is bright and slightly tart against the skin. Jasmine introduces a delicate floral heart that softens the citrus edge with its indolic, creamy character, while violet adds a powdery purple-floral nuance. Vetiver provides a dry, grassy earthiness in the base that contrasts with the clean, laundry-like softness of white musk. The dry-down becomes a pale, powdery skin scent with a faint green-woody undertone. Projection is modest from the start and becomes intimate within an hour, lasting adequately for daytime wear in spring. Its evolution is gentle and largely linear after the top notes fade.
