By the editors · 2 min readAnise opens with a cool, slightly bitter licorice snap that immediately softens as orange blossom steps forward, adding a clean, honeyed citrus glow. The duplicated heart layers double the white-flower intensity, letting freesia’s airy, pear-skin greenness drift across the musk cushion underneath. Within twenty minutes the anise folds into the musk, turning the composition into a pastel, almost almond-skin haze that clings close rather than projects. Dry-down stays linear: white musk dominates, carrying faint soap and powdered sugar ghosts of the opening spices. Sillage stays at arm-length for three hours then settles to skin, making it office-safe yet quietly sensual. Best worn in cool spring or early fall daylight when you want a whisper rather than a shout.
