By the editors · 2 min readCurve opens with a rush of fruit that feels unmistakably mid-nineties—peach and blackberry sweetness tempered by citrus brightness, ylang-ylang adding a creamy, slightly narcotic edge. It's generous without being heavy, the kind of cheerful abundance that defined accessible femininity before the era of sheer musks and minimalist woods.
The heart brings classic white florals into the mix: magnolia's soapy elegance, lily of the valley's green freshness, rose lending depth without dominating. These notes soften the fruity exuberance, rounding it into something more wearable as the perfume settles. The base is gentle—sandalwood and cedar provide warmth, iris and violet a powdery finish, with amber and musk creating a soft skin scent underneath.
This is a perfume for someone who wants presence without drama, sweetness without gourmand intensity. It occupies that particular space where fruity florals could still feel grown-up, before the category splintered into sharper extremes.
