By the editors · 2 min readPear opens juicy and chilled, sliced rather than candied, with pink pepper crackling around it like rind. Mandarin tucked underneath keeps the first minutes bright and almost effervescent.
Mid-bottle, tuberose and ylang-ylang push forward — creamy, faintly tropical, more silky than narcotic. The fruit melts into the petals, smoothing any sharpness and pulling the composition into a sweet white-floral hum. Tonka and amber gather underneath, soft and slightly powdery, while cedar gives a dry pencil-shaving lift that keeps the sweetness in check.
Overall character: a polished modern feminine — fruity-floral with a warm, slightly powdery woody base. Projection sits at conversational distance; the drydown clings as a creamy skin halo.
