Notes
Top notes
- Bergamot Sparkling peel of a green-gold citrus, juicy and slightly floral, with a bitter edge that keeps it elegant.
- Rhubarb Tart, crisp and juicy, with a sharp green-fruity acidity and a hint of sweetness.
- Peach Velvety, juicy and faintly creamy, like fruit skin warmed by the sun.
- Mandarin Soft, sweet and honeyed citrus, gentler than orange.
Heart notes
- Rose Petals, honey and a touch of wine; can lean fresh and dewy or deep and jammy.
- Lily of the Valley Clean, dewy and green-white, like crushed spring stems.
- 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.
- Narcissus Green, bittersweet and slightly narcotic, like bruised spring stems.
- Tuberose Heady, creamy, buttery white flower with a rubbery-camphor edge.
Base notes
- Vanilla Warm, creamy, sweet and slightly smoky, like a custard-soft cloud.
- Patchouli Earthy, damp and chocolatey, dark leaf with a camphor edge.
- Rum Warm, boozy cane spirit with sweet, woody depth.
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky and softly sweet wood, smooth as polished timber.
