By the editors · 2 min readApricot and lychee arrive first — soft, juicy, and slightly tart — with bergamot lifting the opening into something brighter. Violet keeps it from reading as purely fruity, adding a faint green edge that tempers the sweetness.
Raspberry and peony settle into the heart alongside orange blossom, building a floral-fruity core that stays approachable rather than heavy. Cedar gives just enough structure to prevent it from collapsing into sugar.
Amber, patchouli, and musk form a warm, rounded base. The praline noted in the general list nudges this toward gourmand territory in the dry-down, making the finish noticeably sweeter and more enveloping than the opening suggested.
