My Admiration
Fragrance notes
Character
My Admiration opens with a bright mix of red fruits, raspberry, red apple, rhubarb, and orange. The fruit is crisp and tart rather than syrupy, with the rhubarb adding a sharp edge that keeps the citrus and berries from leaning too heavy. This top layer feels lively and immediate, giving the fragrance a fresh start that draws attention without overwhelming the senses.
The heart turns sweeter as spun sugar and jasmine appear alongside saffron, mint, and cedar. The sugar note is airy, more like a light dusting than a thick glaze, while the jasmine provides a soft white floral backdrop. Mint cools the sweetness just enough, and the cedar in the heart bridges neatly into the base, where ambergris, moss, sandalwood, cedar, and musk create a warm, slightly animalic foundation. The moss and sandalwood give the drydown an earthy, creamy texture that balances the fruit and sugar above it.
This is a fragrance for a candlelit dinner or a night out in a city that feels alive with music and conversation, where the air is cool but the room is warm. The sweetness suits someone who enjoys gourmand touches but wants the depth of wood and moss underneath. Those who avoid heavy amber or animalic facets may find the base too dense for their taste, and the mint and rhubarb keep it from ever sitting fully in a traditional dessert territory as the evening stretches on and the scent continues to reveal its layers of fruit, sugar, and warm wood
