By the editors · 2 min readLemon opens bright and a little sharp, then quickly drops into a wide vanilla-and-musk bed. With no listed heart, the composition functions almost as a top-and-base affair: a citrus spark, then a thick creamy floor.
White musk and vanilla dominate the middle stretch, joined by benzoin's balsamic sweetness — slightly resinous, slightly caramelized, with cedar dry and woody underneath keeping things from going fully dessert. The lemon makes a faint reappearance in the general layer, a citrus thread woven through the vanilla.
The overall character is plush, sweet, and clean, a lemon-vanilla skin scent with resin underneath. Linear, comfortable, close-to-skin after the first hour.
