Scent Journey
The opening is dominated by Earl Grey Tea, a slightly citrusy, bergamot-laced tea note that provides a fresh, aromatic lift. It is brief but distinctive, lasting around 15-20 minutes before the floral heart emerges.
The heart reveals a creamy, buttery tuberose, supported by abstract 'creamy flowers' that add a soft, rounded floralcy. The tuberose is rich and slightly indolic, true to the flower, with a faint green nuance in the background.
The base introduces animalic notes and musk, giving the fragrance a warm, skin-like depth. The animalic aspect is noticeable but not overwhelming, adding a sensual, slightly dirty facet that contrasts with the creamy floral heart and lingers for several hours.
