Silences

Silences opens with a sharp green bite—galbanum and citrus cutting through the airy sweetness of orange blossom and cassia, a crystalline brightness that feels almost silent in its clarity. The heart blooms into a dense floral garden: narcissus and iris anchor a constellation of jasmine, rose, and lily-of-the-valley, their green stems still visible beneath the petals. As warmth settles, oakmoss and vetiver ground the composition in earthy solidity, while ambrette and musk soften the edges with a subtle, skin-close sensuality that lingers in the base alongside cedar and sandalwood—a quiet garden at dusk, caught between bloom and shadow.
