By the editors · 2 min readBergamot opens alone with a clean citrus brightness that hands off to iris in the heart within minutes. The opening is brief.
Iris dominates the heart entirely, holding a cool powdery-mineral character that reads suede-like and slightly carrot-rooty. There is no fruit or floral support; the iris stands on its own. Jasmine in the broader frame provides a faint floral whisper without changing the identity.
White musk, tonka bean, sandalwood, and vetiver close the arc with a clean, slightly nutty-creamy base. The tonka adds an almond-vanilla cushion, the sandalwood smooths the iris coolness, and the vetiver pulls the dry-down toward a quiet earthy finish. Reads as a refined iris-musk skin scent, projecting modestly.
