Carat

Pear and bergamot open with a sharp, almost green bite—crisp as bitten fruit in cool air. The heart unfolds into a dense floral tableau: violet's powder mingles with honeysuckle's syrup while narcissus adds a slightly indolic green edge, ylang-ylang a creamy sweetness. Hyacinth and tulip bring a fresh, almost soapy brightness through the florals. As it settles, mimosa's honeyed warmth rises beneath, softening the florals into something less botanical and more luminous, while white musk anchors the drydown to skin with a clean, barely-there powder.
