  • White Pepper
  • Mandarin Soft, sweet and honeyed citrus, gentler than orange.

Heart notes

  • Olibanum Cool, lemony and peppery resin smoke, like a quiet stone church.
  • Gardenia Creamy, green-white petals with a lush, buttery fullness.
  • Jasmine Sweet, heady white blossom with an indolic, almost animal warmth.
  • Lily Rich, creamy, slightly spicy white bloom with a waxy fullness.
