Scent Profile — What You'll Experience
Top Notes
Bergamot · Heliotrope · Neroli
Heart Notes
Galbanum · Orange Blossom · Orris
Base Notes
Patchouli · Tonka Bean · Vanilla
The top notes arrive as a luminous burst of heliotrope and bergamot, kissed with delicate neroli. It's an opening that feels weightless and immediately refined—a warm, sophisticated hello that sets an airy tone without overwhelming the senses. The fragrance opens with graceful clarity, inviting rather than commanding attention.
As the fragrance settles, a sophisticated floral heart emerges. Galbanum and iris create a powdery, slightly green elegance, while orange blossom and orris add a creamy, almost velvety softness. This is the heart of refined femininity—poised, gentle, and timelessly beautiful. The transition feels seamless, drawing you deeper into the scent's effortless charm.
The base grounds the composition with bourbon vanilla, tonka bean, and patchouli, creating a warm, gourmand embrace without heaviness. Vanilla weaves through, adding a subtle sweetness that lingers as an intimate skin-close trail. The sillage remains noticeable yet personal—a fragrance that stays close, rewarding those near enough to notice.
