Notes Pyramid
Scent Journey
The fragrance opens with an immediate, photorealistic burst of crushed green stems and morning dew. It is sharp, bracing, and incredibly naturalistic, avoiding any synthetic 'soapy' pitfalls.
As the green notes settle, the star of the show—the Lily-of-the-Valley—takes center stage. It is a transparent, airy floral that feels crystalline and cool to the touch.
The drydown is a soft, skin-scent whisper of delicate jasmine and a hint of powdery rose. It remains fresh and clean, though it lacks a heavy anchoring base, staying true to its ethereal nature.
Performance Dashboard
Moderate, roughly 4-6 hours; reviewers note a notably weak base typical of the Muguet style.
Intimate to moderate—a fresh, transparent floral that stays close to the skin.
Soft to moderate; it creates a personal aura rather than a trail.
