Dark Orchid

Black gardenia and bright mandarin open with a sharp citrus snap, then the composition deepens as ylang-ylang unfolds into creamy, almost indolic jasmine. Dark orchid emerges beneath—shadowed, slightly animalic—while lotus petals add a cool, waxy underside. The heart grows heavier, more sensual, before Indonesian patchouli leaf rises with earthy grip. Sandalwood and incense settle the base into warm resinousness, vanilla threading through the drydown as smoke and soft wood remain on skin.
