Alas de Mariposa
Fragrance notes
Character
Alas de Mariposa opens with bright mandarin orange and bergamot that feel sunlit and crisp. Orange blossom adds a clean, slightly soapy facet that keeps the entrance polite rather than juicy. The citrus here is a clear morning tone, not a heavy syrup, and it pairs well with the floral accords that follow.
Camellia and lily bring a soft, lactonic creaminess that settles close to the skin. Gardenia leans into the white floral accord with a gentle animalic edge, giving the heart some personality without turning sharp. Sandalwood enters slowly and wraps the flowers in a smooth, powdery wood. Musk lingers underneath and creates a faint, skin-like warmth that feels intimate. The base stays quiet and rounded, letting the floral cream lead while the wood and musk hold the shape together.
Wear this when you want a white floral that behaves like a soft veil instead of a loud statement. It fits someone who enjoys gardenia and lily but prefers them cushioned by sandalwood and a powdery finish. Daylight hours suit it best, especially in spaces where a clean, creamy floral feels appropriate and never overwhelming.
