By the editors · 2 min readNeroli opens bright and soapy, its orange-blossom bitterness quickly softened by freesia’s watery green sweetness, creating a clean white-floral accord that sits close to skin. Jasmine arrives within minutes, amplifying the white-flower creaminess while folding in a faint banana-leaf nuance that keeps the heart from turning syrupy. Sandalwood dominates the dry-down, its milky wood providing a smooth runway for vanillic amber and clean musk to merge into a pale, skin-warmed glow that smells like freshly ironed linen. Projection stays polite, wafting no farther than handshake distance for about five hours before collapsing into a faint woody-powdery trace. Office-safe year-round, it performs best in spring humidity where the neroli can sparkle and the musk never cloys.
