By the editors · 2 min readSaffron opens with a dry, leathery spice that stains the bergamot’s fleeting sparkle, turning the citrus into something dusty and sun-bleached. Iris soon rises, cool and chalky, sheathing the saffron in a powdery film, while a muted rose adds only the faintest blush of petals rather than full bloom. The base swaps powder for resin: amber and vanilla melt into a soft caramel glow that is immediately darkened by a clean, medicinal oud and a scrubbed white musk, so the final skin trail is warm amber-vanilla seen through gauze. Projection stays polite, a one-arm-length aura that lingers through a workday, tilting formal but never heavy; cool autumn days feel natural.
