By the editors · 2 min readCinnamon and bergamot open with a warm-spicy and citrusy burst that feels energetic and slightly sharp. Jasmine introduces a rich floral depth that complements the spice without overwhelming it. Rum adds a boozy, sweet undertone that enhances the warmth of the cinnamon. Lily of the valley and freesia provide a fresh, green floralcy that lightens the heart. Amber creates a resinous, sweet base that blends with the rum and spice notes. Patchouli contributes an earthy, dry texture that grounds the composition and adds complexity. The fragrance evolves from spicy-citrus to warm-resinous with a slightly powdery dry-down. It has good longevity and moderate projection, suitable for fall evenings or formal events.
