Scent Journey

1
Opening 0-30 min

The first 0–30 minutes are a boozy, sweet explosion. Amaretto and rum take center stage, with mandarin adding a fleeting citrus brightness. The initial impression is syrupy and almost liqueur-like, with a slight nuttiness from the amaretto.

2
Heart 1-2 hrs

After about an hour, the heart emerges. Patchouli provides a earthy, slightly green counterpoint to the sweetness, while caramel and amber deepen the composition into a warm, resinous gourmand. The rum fades, leaving a creamy, almost dessert-like character.

3
Drydown 4+ hrs

Four hours in, the base notes dominate. Sandalwood and vanilla create a smooth, creamy foundation, with benzoin adding a balsamic, slightly powdery finish. The sweetness remains but becomes more subdued, blending into a cozy, skin-hugging scent.
