By the editors · 2 min readMagnolia dominates the opening with a creamy, slightly waxy white floral that feels luminous rather than loud. The heart folds this petal richness into sandalwood's dry, milky wood, while tonka bean injects a soft almond-coumarin sweetness that prevents the composition from turning austere. Ambergris lends a salty, skin-like marine glow that keeps the musk from becoming overly clean; instead it feels like warm flesh after ocean swimming. The dry-down is a hazy, golden skin aura where amber resins blur the edges between wood, musk and remaining floral lactones, creating the effect of sun-warmed limbs under linen. Projection stays within arm's length for six hours, making it an effortless year-round skin scent for office or travel.
