By the editors · 2 min readLavender and basil create an aromatic herbal opening, brightened by bergamot's citrus freshness. Coconut and jasmine introduce a tropical floral heart, while heliotrope and violet add powdery texture. The base combines warm-spicy cinnamon, clove, and pink pepper with earthy patchouli and oakmoss, supported by vanilla and benzoin sweetness. Tobacco and musk provide depth, resulting in a complex evolution from fresh-aromatic to warm-woody. Projection is strong initially, lasting over twelve hours with moderate sillage contraction. Ideal for formal evenings in cool seasons.
