Scent Journey
The first 30 minutes are a vibrant explosion of citrus—mandarin, lime, and bergamot—intertwined with a juicy tropical fruit accord. It's bright, effervescent, and instantly uplifting, like a splash of cold water on a hot day.
As the citrus begins to soften, the heart emerges with creamy coconut water, delicate jasmine, and a subtle ginger spiciness. The Sicilian orange adds a sweet, sun-ripened nuance, creating a smooth, slightly exotic blend that feels both refreshing and comforting.
After four hours, the fragrance settles into a warm, musky base. White musk provides a clean, skin-like aura, while tonka bean adds a hint of vanilla-like sweetness and patchouli grounds the composition with an earthy, slightly woody depth. The result is a soft, lingering trail that is both intimate and inviting.

Good projection for the first couple of hours, projecting about an arm's length before settling closer to the skin.
Moderate sillage—leaves a noticeable but not overpowering trail. Perfect for close encounters and daytime wear.
