1897 Woman

Bright citrus and cardamom open 1897 Woman with a crisp, almost peppery bite—lemon and mandarin cut through green apple's tart edge, while black currant adds shadowed depth. The heart unfolds into soft florals: heliotrope's powdery warmth, jasmine's indolic whisper, lily-of-the-valley's innocent green freshness, peony's blush. Musk and sandalwood settle beneath, grounding the sweetness with dry woodiness and a barely-there vanilla that doesn't cloying—only warm skin and cedar's amber-tinged dryness lingering at the wrists.
