By the editors · 2 min readA creamy, sun-warmed white floral that captures honeysuckle's honeyed sweetness without tipping into cloying territory. The opening is bright with citrus and jasmine, but within minutes the magnolia and ylang-ylang assert themselves—rich, almost buttery, with a soft powdery quality that feels more Mediterranean garden than tropical hothouse.
The benzoin in the base lends gentle warmth and subtle vanilla-like smoothness, rounding out the florals without overpowering them. This isn't the sharp green honeysuckle of a vine in early spring, but rather the plush, nectar-heavy version you'd encounter on a warm evening in Italy.
Best suited to those who appreciate vintage-style white florals with restraint—full-bodied but never heavy, sweet but grounded by the resinous base. It wears close to the skin and feels like a personal indulgence rather than a statement.
