By the editors · 2 min readBergamot flashes bright and brief, a quick metallic edge that parts almost immediately to let ylang-ylang and heliotrope take over. The heart layers creamy banana-peach lactones over indolic jasmine and a clean neroli, creating a velvety yellow-floral cushion shot through with soft almond undertones. Rose keeps the bouquet rounded, preventing the peach from tipping into full dessert territory while still steering the accord toward skin-warmed marzipan. Ambergris and sandalwood arrive late, salt-tinged woods that dry the residual fruit sugars to a downy, musk-laden glow that lingers close. Projection stays civil, a low-hum aura perfect for office days that roll into candle-lit dinners; cool fall evenings let the heliotrope and ambergris expand without turning cloying.
