By the editors · 2 min readThe opening jolts with tart plum and bitter galbanum, a green-fruited collision that feels deliberately contrary to eighties excess. Freesia adds a soapy brightness, but the sharpness lingers longer than expected, refusing easy charm.
As it settles, gardenia blooms thick and creamy against sandalwood, tempered by nutmeg's dry rasp and patchouli's earthiness. Ylang-ylang brings its banana-sweet languor, but the composition stays grounded, almost austere. Rose appears briefly, more texture than centerpiece.
The drydown reveals its era: amber and vanilla soften into a gauzy, musky haze, sandalwood threading through like worn silk. This is Moschino before the irony became costume—opulent but oddly restrained, a white floral for someone who distrusts sweetness. It wears like confidence without the need to announce itself, decidedly analog in its proportions.
