Ballade a Venise

Marigold and African orange flower open with a sunlit, almost honeyed brightness, mandarin adding a crisp citrus snap. As Ballade a Venise unfolds, olive blossom brings a green, slightly mineral coolness that tempers the sweetness emerging from passionfruit and ylang-ylang—those white florals deepen into something creamy and luminous. Jasmine threads through, soft and powdery. The green note of galbanum anchors everything, lending an herbal dryness that keeps the floral warmth from cloying, until only that cool, resinous green chord lingers on skin.
