By the editors · 2 min readNeroli opens with a bitter, citrus-floral aroma that feels both fresh and slightly green on application. Orris root provides a powdery, earthy heart that adds texture and a velvety iris character to the scent. Sandalwood offers a creamy, soft woodiness that blends smoothly with the powdery iris accord. Vetiver introduces a dry, rooty earthiness that grounds the composition with a subtle green bitterness. Development is gradual, shifting from bright neroli to a more subdued, powdery woody dry-down over hours. It projects softly and lasts moderately, suited for refined occasions in cool or mild weather.
