By the editors · 2 min readLemon opens with a bright, sharp citrus burst that is fresh and slightly tart. Tonka bean emerges quickly, adding a sweet, coumarin-rich character that feels warm and slightly powdery. Madagascar vanilla and sandalwood form the base, creating a creamy, sweet woody accord that is smooth and comforting. Cashmeran contributes a musky, amber-like warmth that enhances the cosy dry-down. The scent shifts from citrusy to sweet-woody, remaining relatively linear after the top notes fade. It projects moderately and has good longevity, ideal for casual wear in cool weather. The overall effect is a simple, sweet woody fragrance with a citrus opening.
