Fracas

Notes

Top notes

• Hyacinth Sweet, green and watery-floral, with a cool, slightly heady spring character.
• Bergamot Sparkling peel of a green-gold citrus, juicy and slightly floral, with a bitter edge that keeps it elegant.
• Mandarin Soft, sweet and honeyed citrus, gentler than orange.

Heart notes

• Tuberose Heady, creamy, buttery white flower with a rubbery-camphor edge.
• Jasmine Sweet, heady white blossom with an indolic, almost animal warmth.
• Orange Blossom Creamy, honeyed white flower with a green, citrusy lift.
• Peach Velvety, juicy and faintly creamy, like fruit skin warmed by the sun.
• Lily of the Valley Clean, dewy and green-white, like crushed spring stems.
• Osmanthus Apricot-like, leathery floral with a suede softness.
• Violet Sweet, powdery and faintly green, like candied petals.

Base notes

• Iris Cool, buttery, powdery and slightly earthy, like lipstick and cold stone; taken from the root, not the flower.
• Oakmoss Damp forest floor, bittersweet and slightly salty-green.
• Musk Soft, clean, skin-like warmth, from fresh laundry to warm skin.
• Sandalwood Creamy, milky and softly sweet wood, smooth as polished timber.
• Tolu Balsam
• Vetiver Earthy, smoky, green root with a dry, grassy depth.
