By the editors · 2 min readApple and lemon open with a crisp, juicy fruitiness that feels immediately bright and approachable. Cardamom threads through the top with a subtle, warm-spicy lift that adds aromatic complexity without overwhelming the citrus. Lavender emerges in the heart, providing a clean, herbal- aromatic bridge that tempers the initial sweetness. Sandalwood and vanilla form the base, offering a creamy, woody warmth that grounds the composition. The dry-down shifts from fresh to softly resinous, with vanilla lending a gentle sweetness. Projection is moderate, settling close to the skin after a few hours, suitable for casual or office wear in cooler weather.
