By the editors · 2 min readBlack currant and galbanum open with a green, slightly bitter edge before the floral heart arrives in full force. This is a loaded formula: Bulgarian rose, jasmine, ylang-ylang, narcissus, and lily of the valley pushing together — not light, not restrained. Incense appears in both heart and base, giving the composition a smoky-resinous backbone that keeps it from reading as purely floral.

Labdanum and amber lock the drydown into a warm, deep base; vetiver adds an earthy dryness that cuts the sweetness. A dense classic — unambiguous in its vintage register, unapologetic about the space it takes up.
