Fragrance notes
Character
A tart rhubarb and lemon opening makes a strong case for keeping this bottle on a sunny balcony rather than in a winter wardrobe. The sharp citrus and sour stalk give the first minutes a bright, upright posture that feels made for clear weather and open air. Saffron adds a warm flicker that keeps the entrance from feeling thin, yet the overall impression stays crisp and alert.
Fig and sweet almond enter next and soften the edges without collapsing the structure. Immortelle brings a dry, haylike sweetness that anchors the fruit, so the heart reads as golden rather than sugary. This is where the scent settles into a gentle radius that stays near the skin and moves with the body instead of projecting outward to fill a space.
Black currant leaf and blossom carry that green fruit tone into the drydown, where cedar and musk give the base a clean, slightly resinous finish. The scent remains present for a reasonable span through a day outdoors, then asks for a light refresh when the air turns warm and the light stretches long. It suits someone who wants fruit and wood without heavy drama.
Picture a woven chair pulled into a garden path where dappled light hits a bowl of sliced citrus and fresh figs.
