By the editors · 2 min readBergamot and lemon open briskly, with tarragon adding a green, slightly anise-edged note that stops the citrus from reading as simple. The transition into the floral heart is expansive — gardenia, jasmine, ylang-ylang, and iris together read as a dense white bouquet, lifted by lily of the valley and grounded by rose.
Honey in the base gives the florals a richer, slightly waxy quality, and civet introduces an animalic warmth that is present but not overwhelming. Sandalwood and tonka bean lend creaminess; vetiver and amber add a dry, slightly earthy foundation.
This is a structured floral with animalic depth and a honeyed warmth that increases over time. Powdery and complex, it suits formal or evening occasions.
