By the editors · 2 min readGrapefruit opens with a sharp, bright citrus burst that quickly softens against a dense floral heart. Jasmine and ylang-ylang lend a creamy, tropical sweetness, while iris provides a powdery texture that tempers the floral intensity. Patchouli introduces an earthy, slightly mossy undertone that grounds the composition, preventing it from becoming overly sweet. Amber and musk in the base create a warm, skin-close veil that lingers for hours with moderate projection. The scent evolves from a sparkling citrus-floral to a more resinous, intimate dry-down over several hours. Best suited for evening wear in spring or fall, it maintains a polished, complex character throughout its development.
