By the editors · 2 min readPlum and peach open lush and slightly overripe, threaded with a sap-bitter galbanum that prevents the fruit from turning syrupy. Bergamot and rose flicker behind, and the opening already feels dense.
The heart is enormous — tuberose, jasmine, ylang at full bloom, with heliotrope adding almond-powder softness and violet a dusky edge. Tarragon and nutmeg keep things from going purely sweet, lending an herbal-spicy lift. Then the base unfolds like a vintage chypre: oakmoss, civet, patchouli, sandalwood, all braided with vanilla and amber. The civet whispers animal warmth without going skanky. Projection is sustained for hours, the texture velvety and powdery at once.
The drydown is mossy-amber under a creamy almond-floral haze. Plush, complex, unmistakably built in the grand tradition.
