By the editors · 2 min readBergamot provides a bright, citrusy opening that quickly blends with aromatic lavender and fresh white florals. Jasmine and lily of the valley contribute a clean, soapy floral heart that feels classic and slightly powdery. Violet adds a soft, powdery sweetness that enhances the floral bouquet without overwhelming it. Amberwood, sandalwood, and cedar create a dry, woody base that provides structure and subtle warmth. Musk ensures the dry-down remains clean and skin-close, with a faintly powdery and musky trail. This scent offers moderate longevity and sillage, evolving linearly into a clean, versatile fragrance for daily wear in spring or fall.
