Description
The story behind this fragrance
Aldehydes spark clean and bright across skin, framing a sharp lily that cuts through before violet and cyclamen soften the composition. Cassis brings a whisper of dark berry depth while lily-of-the-valley rounds into something almost powdery. As it settles, vetiver and cedar emerge with earthy clarity, grounded by sandalwood's creamy warmth until the drydown rests on dry, woody amber and a final trace of violet lingering at the pulse points.
