Preda

Preda opens with a bright, almost candied citrus—bergamot and yellow mandarin snapping awake before petitgrain settles them into something greener, more structured. The heart blooms into creamy florals: rose de Mai and jasmine sambac thread through mimosa's soft powder, while chocolate and coffee add an almost gourmand warmth, a sense of velvet friction against skin. As it settles, sandalwood and patchouli ground everything in earth and wood, benzoin and labdanum turning sticky and resinous, vanilla wrapping the whole thing in amber-toned comfort. It's opulent without shouting, floral yet grounded in cocoa and earth.
