Notes

Top notes

  • Violet Leaf Cool, green and slightly metallic, like a snapped leaf stem.
  • Pink Pepper Bright, rosy and peppery, lighter and fruitier than black pepper.
  • Mandarin Soft, sweet and honeyed citrus, gentler than orange.

Heart notes

  • Iris Cool, buttery, powdery and slightly earthy, like lipstick and cold stone; taken from the root, not the flower.
  • Jasmine Sweet, heady white blossom with an indolic, almost animal warmth.

Base notes

  • Cedar Dry, pencil-shaving wood, clean and slightly smoky.
  • Suede Soft, powdery, faintly animalic leather, plush as brushed skin.
  • Musk Soft, clean, skin-like warmth, from fresh laundry to warm skin.
  • Benzoin Warm, sweet, vanilla-like resin with a soft balsamic glow.
  • Vetiver Earthy, smoky, green root with a dry, grassy depth.
