By the editors · 2 min readCitrus oils of orange and grapefruit burst with a bright, zesty effervescence that quickly settles over a resinous core. Labdanum and amber form a warm, balsamic heart, deepened by earthy patchouli and dry guaiac wood. A subtle powdery veil from iris softens the composition, while tonka bean adds a gentle sweetness. Ginger provides a faint spicy lift that prevents the base from becoming too heavy. This amber-centric scent evolves from a radiant opening to a rich, resinous dry-down that feels enveloping and warm. Projection remains moderate with a sillage that stays close to the skin after the first hour, offering good longevity through the cooler seasons for evening wear.
