By the editors · 2 min readViolet leaf opens cool and metallic, slicing through blood orange’s syrupy brightness while cardamom adds a dry, peppery crackle. The heart swaps citrus for powder: iris’s chilled carrot starch meets rose’s soft petals and jasmine’s indolic richness, creating a dusty floral haze that muffles the top’s sparkle. Tonka and praline arrive early, pulling the composition toward almond-skin sweetness before sandalwood’s creamy planks and amber’s resinous glow warm the skin. Musk keeps the base fuzzy rather than loud, so the scent lingers as a close, nutty-woody skin tint rather than a room-filling cloud. Projection stays polite; best for cool spring days or air-conditioned offices where the violet-leaf chill can still register.
