Fragrance notes
Character
Myrrh, saffron, iris, sandalwood, vetiver, vanilla and orange blossom combine in a warm spicy, amber and woody profile. The white floral accord from the orange blossom sits beside a metallic edge and a powdery texture. Balsamic and earthy tones run through the mix, and the sweet side is present without taking over. The aromatic facet keeps the blend from feeling flat, while the metallic note gives it a cool surface that contrasts with the heavy resin and wood.
The scent feels suited to a cold day when the air is crisp and a thick coat is needed. The warmth of the resin and spice matches a quiet indoor setting with dim light and warm drinks. It carries a formal weight that works when the weather keeps people inside. The powder from the iris and the cream of the sandalwood create a soft finish that pairs well with wool and heavy fabric. The vanilla adds a calm sweetness that fits a slow, cold evening.
The metallic accord can feel sharp against the softer notes and may distract from the smooth wood and flower. The powdery aspect grows strong and may not suit someone who prefers a clean, sheer floral. The mix of earthy vetiver and heavy myrrh creates a dense feel that some will find too rigid. Composed by Sarah Baron-Abrioux, this fragrance asks for patience with its cooler edge and its thick, resin-heavy body.
