By the editors · 2 min readRosewood and bergamot open with a citrus-woody accord that is both bright and slightly creamy. The heart unfolds into a complex floral bouquet where jasmine and ylang-ylang provide richness, lily of the valley adds freshness, osmanthus contributes a fruity apricot nuance, and rose offers classic floral depth. The base is a warm, resinous blend of tonka bean's sweet coumarin, sandalwood's creamy wood, vetiver's earthy dryness, benzoin's vanilla-like balsamic, amber's warmth, honey's sweet density, and musk's skin-softening effect. This creates a rich, evolving floral-oriental with excellent longevity and moderate sillage that suits formal evening wear in cooler seasons.
