Scent Profile — What You'll Experience
Top Notes
Bergamot · Pink Pepper
Heart Notes
Cedarwood · Patchouli
The top notes arrive as a burst of Bergamot and Calabrian Bergamot, kissed with Pink Pepper for a subtle warmth that awakens the senses. This bright opening feels fresh yet inviting, setting the stage for what unfolds beneath—a moment of pure luminosity before the deeper layers emerge.
As the fragrance settles, Cedarwood and Patchouli take center stage, wrapping around the skin with a sophisticated, creamy embrace. These heart notes build the fragrance's signature character: earthy, grounding, and undeniably luxurious. The patchouli here is refined rather than heavy, balanced by the clean woodiness of cedarwood for an effect that feels both substantial and wearable.
The base layers in gently with Tonka Bean, adding a soft sweetness that rounds out the composition beautifully. This intimate skin-close trail lingers for 6–8 hours, projecting with a noticeable presence that commands attention without demanding it. Perfect for warm weather, yet versatile enough for year-round wear.
