By the editors · 2 min readThere's no proper top — the fragrance enters mid-stride with ylang-ylang's banana-tinged yellow-floral richness leaning against jasmine. Heliotrope adds an almond-cherry powder almost immediately.
From there it gets darker fast: olibanum's smoky balsamic resin pushes through the flowers, vetiver runs a leather-adjacent earthiness underneath, and the whole heart reads candle-lit rather than sunlit. There's a quiet animalic pulse threading the florals to the resins.
The drydown lays amber and cedar against musk, a soft warmth without sweetness. The character overall is dim and contemplative — yellow florals worn down by smoke and resin into something almost sacred. Best in cool weather, evening, when the smoky-floral tension has room to breathe.
