By the editors · 2 min readBlack currant opens with a bright, jammy fruitiness that is immediately freshened by bergamot's citrus sparkle, creating an energetic and slightly tart top accord. Jasmine and freesia develop in the heart, with jasmine adding a floral richness and freesia contributing a green, dewy freshness that lightens the composition. Violet emerges strongly, imparting a distinct powdery floral character that becomes the central theme, softening the initial fruitiness into a more traditional floral bouquet. Sandalwood and cedar provide a dry, woody foundation that blends with clean musk to create a smooth and slightly creamy dry-down. The scent evolves linearly, maintaining its violet-led floral character with moderate projection that stays within arm's reach for the first two hours. Ideal for spring daytime wear, it suits casual and office settings with its cheerful yet polished demeanor.
