The Elder Is Also A Tree
Fragrance notes
Character
Sunlight hits a garden path where gorse bushes spill yellow petals across dry stone. Bergamot and mandarin orange brighten the air first, sharp and clean, while elderberry and blackberry press a cool, dark juice against the citrus edge. The opening feels alive and outdoors, like walking that path with a basket in hand while the morning air still carries a chill.
Gorse continues through the heart, its hay-like warmth wrapped around orris and a handful of candied fruits that glisten without becoming sticky. Vanilla softens the edges, but tuberose soon rises from the base with a creamy white weight that pulls the scent into deeper ground. Cedar and vetiver add a dry, pale wood that keeps the flowers from floating too far, and benzoin seals the blend with a resinous hush.
Andrea Byrne composed a fragrance that moves from bright citrus to a resinous white floral without losing its outdoor roots. It fits someone who enjoys a fresh start that slowly turns into something rooted and elegant, perfect for a walk through a garden when the air is cool and the light is clear.
