By the editors · 2 min readIris dominates the opening, delivering a cool, chalky powder that feels like mineral dust on skin. Heliotrope folds in a soft almond sweetness, tempering the iris's austerity while lily and lily-of-the-valley inject quiet white petals that hover rather than bloom. Sandalwood emerges early, its creamy wood already blurring the florals so the heart feels like pressed flower powder rather than fresh stems. Virginia cedar adds a dry pencil-shaving edge that prevents the musk from turning plush; instead the base stays matte, slightly dusty, close to fabric. Evolution is gentle: the iris loses its mineral snap, the heliotrope softens into marzipan, and the woods absorb most of the musk's warmth so the skin smells like unscented lotion left in a cedar drawer.
