Fragrance notes
Character
Violet and aldehydes open the composition with a crisp, slightly soapy brightness that catches the light. Neroli adds a clean citrus edge that keeps the entrance from feeling heavy. The heart gathers narcissus, jasmine, hyacinth, rose, carnation, raspberry, lily-of-the-valley, peach and orris into a dense floral bouquet that stays near the body rather than announcing itself across a space. Oakmoss, civetta, Virginia cedar, musk and sandalwood form a base that holds the petals in place for a reasonable stretch without turning the blend into a permanent fixture on the skin. The overall impression is green, powdery and fresh, with a mossy, earthy woodiness that feels suited to a sunlit morning in a city garden where the air is clear and the day is just getting started.
Raspberry and peach bring a soft fruitiness that never becomes sugary, while the carnation and hyacinth keep the mix angular and vivid. The orris lends a smooth rootiness that bridges the bright top and the mossy drydown. White floral accords dominate the middle, but the green and woody facets prevent it from floating away into pure sweetness. The aldehydes give it a vintage, slightly formal texture that some wearers will find charming and others will find dated. The civetta adds an animalic whisper that can read as musty rather than luxurious, and that particular edge is the reason many modern noses set this bottle aside after a single trial.
