By the editors · 2 min readYlang-ylang dominates the opening with its custard-like banana facet, immediately joined by a jammy plum that stains the composition a deep purple. Bergamot flashes quickly, its citrus edge sharpening the ylang-ylang’s creamy edges before surrendering to orange blossom’s honeyed white petals. Tonka bean and benzoin lock together in the base, producing a marzipan-amber accord that feels powdered rather than syrupy, letting the tropical flower retain daylight. On skin the plum darkens toward dried fruit while the orange blossom radiates softly for hours, never quite letting the vanillic base turn fully gourmand. Sillage stays within handshake distance; the scent reads as plush cashmere rather than statement jewellery, fitting offices and cool autumn days equally.
