Fragrance notes
The opening feels slightly crowded. Bergamot and plum arrive together with a bright, fruity lift, but the orris steps in immediately with a thick, powdery weight that makes the start feel a little heavy on the nose. It is a dense introduction rather than a clean, crisp one, and the balance leans more toward the root than the sparkle. Lily-of-the-valley and rose try to pull the heart toward a soft white floral airiness, yet the patchouli anchors them with an earthy, dark streak that keeps the blend grounded and serious. The sweetness from the plum lingers through the middle, meeting the tonka bean and amber as the base settles in. White musk smooths the edges without lightening the overall mood.
You are standing in a velvet-draped room where afternoon light hits a bowl of dark fruit on a wooden table, the air thick with the scent of dried flowers and warm resin rising from the floorboards.
