Scent Journey
The first 0-30 minutes burst with pear blossom and blackcurrant, creating a sparkling, fruity, slightly tart opening. Pear blossom adds an airy floral sweetness, while blackcurrant provides juicy depth. It feels modern, bright, and inviting.
From 1-2 hours, the heart reveals peony and orange blossom. Peony brings a rosy, green freshness; orange blossom adds honeyed white floral warmth. The fragrance becomes creamy, rounded, and elegantly feminine.
After 4+ hours, Madagascar vanilla dominates, softened by Ambroxan and amberwood. The finish is warm, cozy, slightly woody, and skin-like, with a subtle muskiness that lingers on fabric.

Layering Ideas
- Apply a vanilla or unscented body lotion before spraying to enhance the Madagascar vanilla base.
- Layer with a light citrus or neroli mist to brighten the opening without clashing.
- Avoid heavy oud, leather, or smoky incense, which can overpower the delicate floral heart.
- Spray once on clothing to extend longevity and create a subtle scent trail.
