By the editors · 2 min readOrange and bergamot spark a bright, juicy opening that feels sunlit and effervescent. Ylang-ylang arrives quickly, folding its custardy, banana-like richness around the citrus, while orange blossom injects a clean soap facet that keeps the heart from turning syrupy. Vanilla slides in underneath, warming the composition and turning the white flowers into a creamy, skin-hugging dessert. Cedar supplies a quiet pencil-shaving dryness that stops the base from cloying, and a clean white musk extends the wear, leaving a freshly-laundered-linen aura. Projection stays polite, radiating a soft tropical halo for about four hours before settling into a close, sweet skin scent. Wear it anywhere daytime heat needs a cheerful, non-cloying floral lift.
