Notes

Top notes

  • Honey Sweet, waxy, golden and slightly animal-like.
  • Vanilla Warm, creamy, sweet and slightly smoky, like a custard-soft cloud.
  • Bergamot Sparkling peel of a green-gold citrus, juicy and slightly floral, with a bitter edge that keeps it elegant.

Heart notes

  • Magnolia Creamy, lemony white petal with a gentle, silky freshness.
  • Orange Blossom Creamy, honeyed white flower with a green, citrusy lift.

Base notes
