Paramount

Paramount opens with a sharp, almost metallic brightness—aldehydes cutting through green apple's tart snap—before citrus floods in: grapefruit's bitter-sweet pulp and pineapple's juicy candour collide. Orange blossom softens the edges in the heart, its honeyed florality warmed by a subtle pepper tingle that keeps sweetness from settling. The base unfolds as amber and cedarwood build slowly, their woody resin catching vanilla's creamy undertone, until warmth and wood become the skin's final note, grounding everything that came before.
