Ballon De Soie
Fragrance notes
Character
Ballon De Soie asks a lot of patience from anyone who expects a bright, airy introduction. The first impression carries a rough edge of pepper and a thick resinous weight that can feel heavy before the composition finds its balance. This is not a gentle entry, and some wearers will find the initial clash of spice and balsam too dense to enjoy.
Once the pepper softens, the jasmine sambac and osmanthus bring a soft floral lift that keeps the benzoin and vanilla from becoming flat. The musk adds a clean foundation that lets the amber accord breathe without turning sticky. It suits someone who likes resinous florals with a spicy kick and wants a scent that feels dressed for a cool evening walk under streetlights that reflect off wet pavement. The air smells of fallen leaves and fading warmth, with a ribbon of pale gold drifting through the dark.
