Base Notes

Indonesian Patchouli Leaf · Vanilla

The opening arrives with a burst of crisp apple, red berries, and bright lemon, accented by subtle cassia and licorice notes that add depth and intrigue. This top layer feels fresh and energizing, setting a modern foundation that immediately captures attention. The composition balances sweetness with citrus brightness, creating a natural choice for spring and summer days.

In the heart, delicate rose and violet emerge alongside orange blossom, softening the fruit-forward opening into a more romantic, feminine expression. These floral notes weave seamlessly with the lingering brightness above, adding sophistication and warmth. The transition is fluid and elegant, revealing layers that reward closer inspection.

The base settles into creamy vanilla, Indonesian patchouli leaf, and myrrh, grounding the fragrance with subtle earthiness and sensuality. A gentle personal sillage carries these base notes throughout the wear, creating an understated yet instantly memorable presence that feels both approachable and refined.
