By the editors · 2 min readPink pepper crackles first, scattering rosy heat across bergamot’s bright lemon-rind oil. Ylang-ylang arrives within minutes, its banana-sweet petals softening the citrus edges while keeping the spice alive so the heart never feels creamy or heavy. A clean white musk base slides in early, anchoring the ylang’s tropical volume with a skin-veil that mutes projection rather than extending it. The scent stays linear: bright opening, plush yellow floral, then a musky close that smells like laundered cotton warmed by afternoon sun. Expect four hours of polite sillage—arm’s-length at most—then a faint skin whisper. Spring through early fall office wear, especially humid days when something richer would cloy.
