By the editors · 2 min readBlood orange opens with a sharp, slightly bitter citrus edge that immediately gets wrapped in toasted almond and a dark roasted coffee note, creating a nutty-citrus accord that feels both juicy and slightly bitter. The almond softens the coffee’s tarry facets, while tonka bean in the heart adds a creamy, hay-like sweetness that blurs the lines between gourmand and aromatic. As it settles, vanilla and ambergris warm the skin, lending a salty, skin-hugging glow, while oakmoss introduces a cool, earthy-green undertone that keeps the sweetness in check. Projection stays moderate, projecting an arm’s-length radius for the first three hours before pulling closer to skin. The dry-down is a musky, slightly marine-tinged vanilla with lingering almond dust, making it wearable for cool spring evenings or casual fall days when you want cozy without dessert-level sugar.
