Ma 'Alaina

Bright citrus—bergamot and grapefruit—hits first, warmed immediately by honeyed ylang-ylang and the green spark of elemi. Rose and mandarin orange soften the opening into something luminous. The heart unfolds into a dense floral mass: carnation and violet layered with jasmine, lily-of-the-valley, and lily create an almost powdery richness that floats above skin. As this bloom settles, woodsy base notes emerge—sandalwood and patchouli grounding the sweetness—while tobacco leaf adds a subtle, earthy drag. Vanilla and musk round out the drydown, creamy against the lingering wood and spice.
