By the editors · 2 min readBergamot flashes bright and effervescent, slicing through humid air with a metallic-citrus edge that quickly folds into magnolia's creamy lemon-peach petals. Magnolia and black currant form a plush heart: the bloom lends satin-petaled sweetness while the berry adds tart purple lift, keeping the bouquet buoyant rather than sugary. White musk arrives early, sheeting the florals in clean laundry stretch, then sandalwood's dry, milk-pale wood anchors the skin-close dry-down without adding heft. Projection stays polite, radiating barely beyond arm's length for four hours before shrinking to a freshly showered musk haze. Spring and summer office days, weekend brunch, or post-gym refresh suit its airy discretion.
