By the editors · 2 min readOrange bursts forth with a bright, juicy citrus that is immediately energizing and refreshing. Neroli adds a bitter orange blossom nuance that complements the initial fruitiness with floral depth. Cedar provides a dry woody backbone that begins to structure the heart accord. The base combines white musk's clean skin-scent quality with tonka bean's coumarin sweetness and vetiver's earthy dryness. Amber and vanilla lend a warm, resinous undertone that smooths the transition. Development is moderate, shifting from citrus-fresh to a musky-woody dry-down. Projection is moderate with good longevity, suited for warm weather casual and outdoor activities.
