By the editors · 2 min readAffection opens on black currant and hazelnut — a tart-sweet, slightly green fruit lifted by a buttery, almondy-nutty note. The combination reads modern gourmand-fruity from the first second.
The heart turns floral-fruity: raspberry alongside jasmine and lily of the valley. Raspberry keeps the fruit theme going, jasmine adds warmth, lily of the valley lends a clean dewy lift that stops the composition from going too rich.
The base of tonka bean and vanilla closes everything into a soft, creamy, gently sweet dry-down. There is no smoke, no patchouli, no woody anchor — just a comfort-skin finish that rides for several hours close to the body. Wear it casually, on dates, in cool-to-warm weather; it is unambitious in the best sense, doing one warm-fruity thing well.
