Notes

Top notes

  • Pink Pepper Bright, rosy and peppery, lighter and fruitier than black pepper.
  • Mandarin Soft, sweet and honeyed citrus, gentler than orange.
  • Bergamot Sparkling peel of a green-gold citrus, juicy and slightly floral, with a bitter edge that keeps it elegant.
  • Orange Sweet, sunny peel with a rounded, juicy glow.

Heart notes

  • Candied Fruits Sugary, glossy mix of preserved fruit, sweet and syrupy rather than fresh.
  • Jasmine Sweet, heady white blossom with an indolic, almost animal warmth.
  • Iris Cool, buttery, powdery and slightly earthy, like lipstick and cold stone; taken from the root, not the flower.
  • Vetiver Earthy, smoky, green root with a dry, grassy depth.
  • Rose Petals, honey and a touch of wine; can lean fresh and dewy or deep and jammy.

Base notes

  • Patchouli Earthy, damp and chocolatey, dark leaf with a camphor edge.
  • Olibanum Cool, lemony and peppery resin smoke, like a quiet stone church.
  • Amber A warm, golden, resin-and-vanilla effect, soft, sweet and enveloping.
  • Vanilla Warm, creamy, sweet and slightly smoky, like a custard-soft cloud.
