Opens on a marzipan idea: almond and orange blossom together, sweet but powdery rather than syrupy, with the orange blossom keeping it from feeling like a bakery.

The heart adds jasmine and heliotrope, which is where the powder takes over — soft, slightly cosmetic, with a thread of patchouli underneath to keep the sweetness from floating away. It reads young and feminine without becoming saccharine.
The base is the longest stretch: sandalwood and vanilla rounded out by honey and a clean musk. The dry-down is creamy and close, more comforting than seductive. A cool-weather scent for casual days and unhurried evenings — the kind that wears like a soft sweater.
