By the editors · 2 min readAn unusual little gourmand built around the soft, starchy comfort of cooked rice. Pear opens the composition juicy and pale — more Asian pear than European, crisp rather than ripe — and the rice note in the heart is the surprise: lactonic, warm, milky, with a subtle nuttiness that reads as just-pounded mochi.
Sandalwood pulls everything into a creamy base, extending the lactonic feel without turning sweet. There is no vanilla, no sugar — the gourmand effect comes entirely from texture, not from candy.
A close-skin scent for cool weather and quiet rooms. Reads as comfort food rather than perfume.
