By the editors · 2 min readPetitgrain and bergamot open with a dry, slightly bitter citrus that has more green wood than juice. The opening reads as aromatic and crisp, setting up a structured rather than fruity first impression.
Tuberose is the clear center — creamy, slightly rubbery, and full-bodied. Jasmine and mimosa add a softer yellow-floral layer around it, while rose provides some definition without competing. Virginia cedar and sandalwood sit underneath as a clean, lightly resinous support rather than a base that draws attention to itself.
This is a classic white-floral tuberose built with depth and balance — the citrus top keeps it from feeling heavy, and the wood base keeps it from going purely floral.
