The top notes arrive as a luminous burst of lavender, mandarin orange, and bergamot—crisp, inviting, and immediately captivating. These opening moments set a clean, refined tone that feels both modern and timeless.
As the fragrance settles, the heart reveals a lush floral composition: jasmine, jasmine sambac, and tunisian orange blossom dance alongside orchid and a whisper of lavender.
