By the editors · 2 min readFreesia and violet open together, freesia giving a soft watery floral lift while violet contributes its characteristic powdery, slightly metallic edge.
The heart deepens with jasmine and damask rose. The damask rose carries a honeyed-spicy facet that shifts the composition into richer territory, jasmine adding indolic warmth around it. Even with the floral build, the violet from the top keeps echoing through, lending a cool blue-purple feel.
The base does the heavy lifting. White musk, moss, ambergris and Virginia cedar build a chypre-leaning foundation: moss gives that bitter green-earthy depth, ambergris adds animalic warmth, and cedar dries it out. The drydown is sophisticated, slightly old-school, and pleasantly mossy. Cool-weather floral suited to evening wear.
