By the editors · 2 min readGinger, pear, raspberry, and bergamot open with spiced fruit — ginger's warmth alongside ripe pear and raspberry creates a lively, sweet entry. Jasmine, lily of the valley, violet, and rose form a full white-floral heart with a slight powdery edge from the violet.
Amber, patchouli, musk, and praline anchor the base in sweet-earthy warmth. Violet and iris are confirmed as dominant in the note prior alongside patchouli, cherry, and nutty-lactonic elements. This is a structured fruity-floral oriental — the patchouli-praline base gives it enough gravity to avoid feeling thin. Casual and date occasions in fall or mild spring suit it well.
