By the editors · 2 min readPink pepper and grapefruit create a zesty, slightly spicy citrus opening that is energetic and bright. The absence of a defined heart allows the top notes to transition directly into the base. Orris provides a powdery, earthy rootiness that contrasts with the fruity raspberry. Raspberry adds a sweet, jammy fruitiness that prevents the orris from becoming too austere. The dry-down is a simple but effective balance between powdery iris and sweet fruit. Evolution is minimal, with the scent staying linear after the top notes fade. Light projection and modest longevity make it suitable for casual daytime wear in spring.
