By the editors · 2 min readBergamot and orange open brightly before jasmine and ylang-ylang push through, carrying a heady, slightly tropical weight. The floral heart is substantial but not delicate — cinnamon and lavender press in quickly, grounding the bloom in something drier and more austere.
As it develops, plum and peach soften the spice, while birch and iris introduce a cool, almost medicinal edge. The base is where the composition finds its character: sandalwood, guaiac wood, and incense build a resinous, smoky foundation that patchouli deepens without muddying.
The overall effect is dense and ceremonial — a resinous floral that leans more architectural than romantic, suited to cool evenings when something unhurried is called for.
