By the editors · 2 min readAmber dominates from the first spray, carrying a resinous thickness that pulls bergamot and mandarin into a candied citrus glow rather than a fresh squeeze. Vanilla arrives almost simultaneously, its custard richness blanketing patchouli’s earthy edges and turning the whole structure into a velvety, chocolate-dark sweetness that refuses to fully dry. Mid-stage keeps the citrus oils alive, but they read like orange-peel strips soaked in rum, adding a boozy glint rather than brightness. Patchouli stays low, supplying a cool, loamy undercurrent that stops the confection from clogging pores; the result feels like amber resin rolled in soft cocoa powder. Projection hovers at arm’s length for six hours before collapsing into a skin-warm caramel veil that favors cooler evenings and thick scarves.
