Description

The story behind this fragrance

Background opens with bright lavender and anise, a licorice-tinged freshness cut through by tart raspberry and citrus. The heart softens into spiced florals—carnation and heliotrope warm against jasmine and rose, while cinnamon adds a gentle burn. Amber and tonka anchor the dry-down, vanilla and sandalwood emerging as the initial brightness fades, leaving a creamy, woody whisper with a hint of benzoin's resinous glow.
