Polished sandalwood wrapped in aldehydes — a study in quiet, historical poise
It opens with a sharp, sparkling burst of aldehydes and bright citrus, cutting through the air before settling into a cool, powdery orris and floral heart of lilac and jasmine. The transition is seamless, moving into a deep foundation of creamy sandalwood softened by benzoin and tonka bean. It avoids the heaviness of typical resins, leaning instead into a dry, persistent woodiness. With a sillage that stays intimate and a lifespan that lingers on fabrics for days, it carries a sense of structured, timeless calm.
