By the editors · 2 min readJasmine and rose form the heart of this composition, absent any top notes — the fragrance arrives already in its floral phase. Jasmine brings its characteristic indolic warmth and rose adds structure and a soft, velvety depth.
Vetiver, patchouli, and musk form the base. Vetiver contributes an earthy, slightly smoky quality, while patchouli adds resinous earthiness that deepens the composition considerably. The patchouli-vetiver combination gives the base a dark, grounded character.
The overall impression is a floral-earthy composition with clear chypre sensibility — white florals over a dark, mossy-earthy base. The aldehydic brightness noted in the prior suggests some lift and radiance in the florals despite the heavy base. Best suited to cooler seasons.
