By the editors · 2 min readLily of the valley and bergamot create a bright floral-citrus opening with a crisp aromatic lift. Myrrh and jasmine develop a resinous floral heart that adds a balsamic warmth and slight indolic richness. Amber and vanilla in the base provide a smooth sweet foundation that blends with opoponax's resinous depth. Patchouli contributes an earthy nuance that prevents the sweetness from becoming overly cloying. The composition shifts from fresh to warmly resinous over three hours, maintaining a balanced sweet-spicy character. Longevity is extended with moderate sillage, ideal for evening wear in cool to cold seasons.
