Description
The story behind this fragrance
Papilio opens with bright bergamot before dissolving into a creamy, almost confectionery heart where heliotrope and carrot seed create unexpected warmth alongside lily-of-the-valley's green whisper and neroli's citrus snap. Orris root anchors the floral core while magnolia adds a waxy sweetness. The base settles into soft amber and vetiver—earthy, grounding—before vanilla, benzoin, and cashmere musk emerge to wrap everything in powdery, honeyed skin-scent comfort. Peach and opoponax linger like dried fruit caught in warm wool.
