By the editors · 2 min readLemon and bergamot provide a sharp citrus opening that quickly softens into violet's powdery floral character. Jasmine and ylang-ylang create a rich white floral heart accented by cinnamon's warm-spicy warmth and rose's classic depth. The base introduces animalic civet and musk alongside amber and vanilla's resinous sweetness, supported by sandalwood's creaminess and vetiver's earthy dryness. Tonka bean adds a coumarin-like sweetness that blends with the amber accord. This complex composition evolves significantly over several hours, moving from bright floral to animalic-ambery dry-down. Longevity is excellent with moderate sillage, suited for formal evening wear in cooler seasons.
