By the editors · 2 min readBergamot leads with a clean citrus lift before yielding to jasmine and narcissus, which provide a green-floral heart with a faint powdery edge. Patchouli adds earthy depth beneath the florals, keeping the composition grounded without turning dark.
The amber and musk base are warm but understated, allowing the floral accord to remain the dominant impression through the drydown. The patchouli softens rather than dominates, blending with musk into a smooth finish.
The overall character is a fresh-edged floral with modest warmth underneath — accessible and wearable across daytime contexts, leaning feminine without being overtly sweet or heavy.
