Fragrance notes
Character
Orange blossom opens the air with a bright, slightly honeyed lift that feels immediate and welcoming. It carries a gentle bitterness that keeps the start from becoming too soft, giving the entrance a clean and confident edge. This is not a shy introduction, yet it remains polite enough for close company.
Ylang-ylang, tuberose, and jasmine follow in a dense floral weave that feels creamy and full. The tuberose leads with a rounded, almost waxy weight, while jasmine adds a fresh, slightly indolic shimmer. Ylang-ylang smooths the edges with a faint banana-like warmth that makes the heart feel generous rather than sharp.
White musk settles underneath with a pale, skin-close glow that lets the white floral accord breathe without thinning out. The sweetness stays present but never cloying, and the subtle animalic trace gives the flowers a lived-in character. It feels composed by Nejla Barbir with a clear respect for traditional floral structure.
This suits someone who enjoys bold white florals and does not mind a touch of sensuality in a daytime setting. It feels at home among sunlit streets, open windows, and the easy warmth of a garden in bloom. The scent lingers like petals resting on a stone bench after a midday walk.
