By the editors · 2 min readElla opens with fig leaf — green, slightly milky, with a faint sappy edge that keeps it from reading as purely floral. Ginger sharpens the transition into the heart, adding a mild spice that balances the heavier white florals to come.
Tuberose and osmanthus form a rich floral core — tuberose creamy and indolic, osmanthus contributing a soft fruity-apricot nuance that lightens the combination. The two work together rather than competing.
Amber and vanilla close the composition into a warm, sweet base that holds the florals in place without overwhelming them. The overall feel is a floral oriental with a clean, slightly green opening and a smooth, amber-forward dry-down suited to cooler evenings.
