By the editors · 2 min readMagnolia and lily-of-the-valley open cool and waxy, their lemony edges sharpened by a quick lime flash that keeps the white petals from turning soapy. Within minutes a crisp green apple folds into the bouquet, its tart juice lifting the creamy ylang-ylang and tuberose heart so the florals read luminous rather than heavy. Cinnamon and nutmeg dust the petals, giving a soft red-warm spice that lingers through the violet-iris dusting of the dry-down. Sandalwood and vanilla arrive late, but clove keeps the base dry, preventing the amber from sliding into custard; instead the musk traps a clean wood-floral haze that hovers just above skin skin. Projection stays polite, office-friendly, yet the tuberose ensures you smell dressed-up even in humid summer air.
