Freesia and bergamot open in a bright, slightly soapy floral-citrus splash, the freesia thin and watery rather than indolic, with the bergamot lending a clean rind lift.

By the editors · 2 min readFreesia and bergamot open in a bright, slightly soapy floral-citrus splash, the freesia thin and watery rather than indolic, with the bergamot lending a clean rind lift. The entry feels familiar and polished.
Jasmine and orange blossom build the heart, adding creamy white-floral richness with the orange blossom's honeyed-waxy character bridging the citrus and the florals. The bouquet sits in the comfortable middle territory of department-store white-florals.
The base anchors on ambergris, amber, and vanilla for a soft sweet-resinous warmth, with patchouli and musk giving woody-earthy structure. The drydown is plush and faintly powdered, with the white florals holding above the warm sweet base. Built for evening wear in cooler weather.
