Венера (Venus)

Aldehydes open like struck flint—bright, almost electrical—catching bergamot and lemon before lily-of-the-valley unfolds its green-white whisper. The heart softens into reseda's hay-like warmth, jasmine blooming alongside the peppery sweetness of hyacinth, all anchored by coumarin's vanilla undertone. Amber and vetiver settle the base into earthy spice, while sandalwood's creamy resinousness and patchouli's dusty earthiness ground everything into skin, slowly drying to a soft amber hum layered with dry vetiver.
