By the editors · 2 min readLinden in shade — the title is precise. The opening pairs orange blossom and lemon for a clean, slightly honeyed citrus-floral; this is the linden-tree-in-bloom register, where the flower's own nectar reads halfway between orange blossom and chamomile.
The heart is where the shade enters: violet leaf brings a cucumber-cool greenness, lily and damask rose round it into a soft floral, and heliotrope adds a powdery almond-vanilla undertone. The combination is restrained, watercolor-pale, never loud.
The drydown — white musk and amber — is barely there, leaving the floral to fade quietly close to skin. A daytime spring scent in the European naturalist tradition: clean, transparent, gentle, and unconcerned with making an entrance.
