By the editors · 2 min readLemon and neroli arrive cleanly, bright without sharpness, and the black currant beneath them is tart enough to prevent the opening from sliding into generic freshness. In the heart, tiare and ylang-ylang push the composition into tropical territory — creamier and heavier than the opening suggests, with jasmine threading through as a more linear floral backbone. The whole thing evokes sun-warmed skin after a swim: a subtle salt and sun-cream quality that's real though not dominant. Aliénor Massenet kept the base deliberately light — sandalwood and vanilla arrive as warmth, not weight — making this a summer fragrance that remains wearable into autumn evenings.
