Heart Notes
Lily · Orris · Peony · Tuberose · Iris
Base Notes
Cashmeran · Musk · Vetiver · Cashmere Wood
The opening arrives with a burst of Chinese osmanthus and freesia, softened by incense and tamarind—a bright, airy top that feels both crisp and naturally sophisticated. This is a natural choice for spring and summer days, when you want projection that whispers rather than shouts.
In the heart, a lush floral bouquet unfolds: arum lily, iris, peony, and tuberose bloom alongside orris root, creating an intoxicating, multidimensional sweetness. The florals are modern yet timeless, warm without being heavy—the true soul of Saint Michael.
The base settles into cashmeran, cashmere wood, vetiver, and musk, grounding the composition with earthy sophistication. A gentle personal sillage carries this fragrance for 6–8 hours, making it endlessly wearable from morning meetings to evening occasions.
