By the editors · 2 min readJasmine and ylang-ylang create a rich, sweet white floral heart that is immediately opulent and heady. Lily of the valley adds a fresh, green floral accent that lightens the composition. Violet contributes a powdery, soft floral texture that blends with the white flowers. Sandalwood and guaiac wood provide a creamy, smooth woody base that supports the florals. Amber adds a warm resinous depth, while musk gives a soft, skin-like finish. The scent evolves from bright floral to a warm, woody-musk dry down. It projects with moderate strength, suited for evening wear in warmer seasons.
