Scent Journey
The first spritz is a burst of crisp apple and pink pepper, softened by watery, fruity notes. It’s fresh and slightly sparkling, like a glass of chilled rosé on a terrace overlooking the sea.
Within an hour, the heart emerges: a creamy, intoxicating vanilla wrapped in the lush, sun-drenched petals of ylang-ylang and jasmine. The sweetness is balanced by a subtle greenness, evoking the scent of oleander and fig leaves.
As the fragrance settles, the base reveals a warm, resinous embrace of benzoin, labdanum, and sandalwood, with a whisper of musk and patchouli. The aquatic notes fade, leaving a skin-like, balsamic sweetness that lingers for hours.
