By the editors · 2 min readPetitgrain opens with a sharp, green-citrus burst that quickly softens as orange blossom and powdery violet emerge. A subtle praline sweetness weaves through the floral heart, adding a gourmand nuance without becoming cloying. Sandalwood provides a creamy, woody foundation that blends seamlessly with clean musk and a trace of ambergris. The dry-down is a soft, skin-close veil of powdery florals over warm wood. Projection is moderate initially, settling to an intimate radius within two hours. Longevity extends through a full workday, best suited for spring and fall evenings.
