Scent Journey
The first 30 minutes are bright and aromatic. Lemon and mandarin orange provide a fresh citrus lift, while pine adds a green, slightly resinous quality. Coriander contributes a subtle spicy-herbal nuance, keeping the opening from being purely sweet.
After 1-2 hours, the heart emerges with a soft floral bouquet. Jasmine and cyclamen are noticeable but not overpowering, and lavender lends a calming, slightly powdery character. A touch of tea adds a mild astringency, maintaining balance.
From 4 hours onward, the base dominates with warm musk, creamy sandalwood, and dry Virginia cedar. Tonka bean introduces a faint vanilla-like sweetness, while the powdery facet persists. The overall impression is cozy and close to the skin.
Performance Dashboard
Estimated 6-8 hours on skin, based on review commentary. Moderate performance, likely requiring reapplication for all-day wear.
Moderate projection initially, becoming close-to-skin after 2-3 hours.
Moderate sillage; leaves a noticeable but not overpowering trail within arm's reach.
