Lily of the valley and black currant start things off with a green-fruity brightness — the currant adds a slightly tart, berry-like edge while the lily keeps it fresh rather than jammy.

By the editors · 2 min readLily of the valley and black currant start things off with a green-fruity brightness — the currant adds a slightly tart, berry-like edge while the lily keeps it fresh rather than jammy.
Heliotrope and rose emerge in the heart, pulling the fragrance toward a powdery, soft-almond warmth. The heliotrope is particularly shaping here, lending the composition a gentle, slightly retro character that sits between floral and confectionery without committing entirely to either.
Amber, amberwood, and vanilla build a warm, resinous base that amplifies the sweetness from the heart. The drydown is soft and enveloping rather than heavy. Best suited to cooler evenings when the sweetness feels comfortable rather than excessive.
