By the editors · 2 min readBasil and bergamot open with a sharp herbal-citrus accord that quickly cedes to violet in the heart. The violet here has a distinctive cool, slightly powdery quality, deepened by sandalwood and cedar adding quiet woody warmth.
Guaiac wood brings a smoky-woody character in the base, and benzoin adds a soft resinous sweetness. Amber anchors the dry-down with a diffuse warmth, while vanilla smooths out the balsamic edges.
The overall character is a woody-amber with violet as the defining floral element. Warm, moderately spiced, and somewhat classic in its construction. The violet-benzoin combination is particularly appealing in the mid-to-base transition — intimate and slightly sweet.
