Ingénue
Fragrance notes
Character
Ingénue opens with saffron and thyme dusted over mandarin orange. The citrus is bright and immediate, but the spice gives it a dry edge that keeps the fruit from feeling juicy. There is a clean, herbal sting at the start that signals this is not a simple sweet floral.
The heart brings orchid, ylang-ylang, and lily forward. The ylang-ylang adds a creamy richness while the lily keeps the bouquet upright and composed. It feels polished and deliberate, moving through a sunny room with ease and never becoming heavy or cloying.
Tonka bean and vanilla settle in with oakmoss to form a base that is warm and woody. The moss adds a faint earthy texture that grounds the sugar, so the sweetness stays tame. It suits someone who enjoys floral perfumes but wants a spicy, aromatic frame around them.
This is a good choice for daytime wear when you want to feel put together without reaching for something sharp or loud. The vanilla lingers gently alongside the moss, leaving a soft, sweet impression that stays close to the skin.
