By the editors · 2 min readA sharp, green burst of petitgrain dominates the opening, supported by the bright zing of lemon and bergamot citrus. Bulgarian rose emerges as the central heart note, presenting a rich, deep floral character that is immediately grounded by earthy patchouli. The base is profoundly resinous, built on the warm, ambery glow of labdanum and the sweet, balsamic complexity of opoponax. This creates a dry-down that is warm, slightly smoky, and deeply aromatic, with the rose and patchouli persisting throughout. The scent evolves significantly from a crisp citrus-green opening to a dense, resinous-woody finish over many hours. It projects strongly initially but becomes more intimate as the resins warm on skin, suited for formal evening occasions in cool weather.
