The top is busy and unusual for a lilac soliflore: neroli, peach, orange, cardamom, bergamot. The cardamom in particular gives the citrus a green edge that nudges toward the cold-water freshness lilac flowers carry in early morning.
The heart is where the lilac lives, but obliquely — tonka, labdanum and violet weave a powdery-sweet floral that suggests the flower without naming it. Drydown is musk, amber, vanilla, cedar and patchouli: a soft woody-balsamic close. Reads more as nostalgic-floral than literal lilac, and is comfortable for it.
