Scent Profile — What You'll Experience
Heart Notes
Lychee · Peony
It begins with a bright pink pepper opening that feels crisp and inviting—a confident introduction that sets the tone for what's to come. The top notes create an airy, understated sparkle that immediately establishes a mood of clean sophistication.
The middle notes reveal the heart of this fragrance: a delicate interplay of litchi, lychee, and peony petals that softens into subtle petalia. This floral accord is where the magic unfolds—romantic yet grounded, feminine yet poised. The sweetness here is restrained and elegant, never cloying, allowing each note to breathe and evolve on your skin.
The base settles into a luminous blend of musk, white cedar extract, and amber—a composed foundation that carries a moderate projection throughout the day. These notes anchor the fragrance with warmth and sensuality, creating a subtle sillage that lingers for 6–8 hours. The result is a versatile scent that performs beautifully across all seasons, with peak brilliance during warmer months.
