By the editors · 2 min readRaspberry and saffron open together — tart fruit cut with a metallic, slightly smoky spice. The combination is bold from the first spray, with the saffron keeping the raspberry from reading as sweet.
Bulgarian rose and orange blossom fill the heart with dense, full-bodied florality. Leather threads through the development, anchoring the floral material and keeping the fragrance from floating too high. The base of patchouli and praline brings earthy richness alongside a caramelised sweetness that builds gradually.
Overall this sits at the intersection of opulent rose and dark oriental. Patchouli and leather give it grounding weight, while praline softens the edges in the drydown without becoming dessert-like.
