Scent Journey
The opening is a burst of crisp mint and bright neroli, with a spicy saffron undertone. The mint is natural and herbaceous, while saffron adds a warm, leathery nuance. Neroli provides a sparkling citrus-floral lift. This phase lasts for about 15-30 minutes, vibrant and extroverted.
As it transitions into the heart, a delicate jasmine emerges, soft and slightly sweet, supported by neroli. This mid phase, lasting from about 30 minutes to 2 hours, is the most floral part of the fragrance. It is elegant and refined, never overpowering, with a green character from the emerging oakmoss.
The drydown becomes a skin scent. Oakmoss and coumarin dominate, creating a mossy, slightly powdery, and warm base. The freshness of the top is but a memory, but the heart's florals linger faintly. This phase lasts for 4-6 hours on most skin types, sometimes longer as a subtle skin scent.
