By the editors · 2 min readMagnolia comes forward first, cool and lemony in that recognisable way, with a bergamot lift that clarifies the opening without sharpening it. The effect is bright but not sparkling, more silk than glass.
The heart blooms in three directions: jasmine for sweetness, lily for green-throated freshness and ylang-ylang for a soft tropical creaminess. Together they read as a polished bouquet rather than a single dominant flower, the ylang lending a hint of banana-skin lushness.
Vanilla, patchouli and musk anchor the drydown in familiar comfort, the patchouli more cosmetic than dirty. Overall the perfume sits in a glossy contemporary white-floral register — feminine, accessible, gently sweet.
