Our take

Addiction opens with a sharp green lift, where galbanum, basil, bergamot, and mint create a brisk, leafy entrance. Within moments, tuberose takes command, bringing its lush white-floral texture into contact with ylang-ylang, orange blossom, and jasmine. The effect is vivid and slightly untamed, like crushed stems scattered across a polished wooden table.

As the fragrance settles, Peru balsam and vanilla lend the floral core a warm, resinous sweetness. Sandalwood, cedar, musk, and ambroxan give the base a smooth frame, with an ambered softness that grows more prominent as the sharper green notes recede. Addiction has a long-lasting presence, while its sillage forms a modest bubble around the wearer. It feels composed and substantial without turning into a room-filling statement.

The balance between aromatic freshness and creamy white flowers makes Addiction easy to place in a dressed-up setting, though it also works with simple clothes when the mood calls for something expressive. Its unisex character comes through in the tension between cool basil and mint, radiant tuberose, and the sweet balsamic base. Wear it for dinner, an evening gathering, or a quiet day when you want your fragrance to supply the polish. Those who prefer airy citrus or dry woods may find the floral heart too full, while lovers of tuberose and vanilla will have plenty to explore as the composition deepens.
