Scent Journey

1
Opening 0-30 min

The first spray is a vibrant, juicy explosion. Guava and red berries dominate, their tropical sweetness lifted by a zesty squeeze of Sicilian lemon. It feels like biting into a ripe fruit salad on a sunny morning. The opening is bright, effervescent, and immediately uplifting.

2
Heart 1-2 hrs

Within an hour, the fragrance transitions into a lush floral heart. Peony takes center stage, its soft, rosy petals wrapped around a tart raspberry bloom. Violet adds a powdery, slightly cool nuance, creating a delicate balance between sweetness and freshness. The mid is romantic, airy, and undeniably feminine, though still unisex in its softness.

3
Drydown 4+ hrs

After four hours, the base emerges with a comforting, gourmand embrace. Cotton candy and vanilla swirl together, sweet but not cloying, while resins and woody notes add depth. Cedar and vetiver provide a clean, earthy anchor that prevents the scent from becoming too sugary. The drydown is cozy, skin-like, and intimate.
