By the editors · 2 min readBergamot offers a faint citrus lift before jasmine and rose take center stage with their floral intensity. Heliotrope contributes a powdery almond-like sweetness that softens the floral heart, while leather adds a dry, slightly animalic rugged texture. Sandalwood provides a creamy woody base, and musk ensures a soft skin-close dry-down that feels intimate and lasting. The scent is moderately evolving, moving from bright floral to a powdery leather-woody accord over time. Projection is intimate, with longevity around five hours, making it suitable for daytime wear in spring or fall.
