By the editors · 2 min readBlack currant opens with tart fruity intensity that quickly sweetens as the heart develops. Ylang-ylang brings tropical floral sweetness while lily of the valley adds fresh green florality. Peony contributes a soft rosy character that blends with the emerging plum's jammy fruitiness. Patchouli provides earthy depth that grounds the sweetness while praline adds a nutty caramel nuance. The composition shifts from bright fruity-floral to a warmer, gourmand-tinged dry-down. Projection remains moderate throughout with good longevity for evening wear in cooler seasons.
