By the editors · 2 min readViolet leaf opens the composition with a green, slightly metallic chill, grapefruit alongside it adding a tart citrus shimmer. The first impression is sharper and cooler than the perfume's name suggests.
A single jasmine at the heart provides the only floral mass — a creamy, slightly indolic body that contrasts with the green opening but does not dominate.
The base is where the perfume becomes itself: benzoin, vanilla and patchouli stack into a warm, balsamic sweetness with an earthy edge — not gourmand exactly, but rich, slightly resinous, the kind of dry-down that lingers on a scarf. The arc tilts late: green/citrus opening, brief floral hinge, long sweet-resinous tail.
