A complex botanical shock of white petals cooled by sharp citrus
It begins with an immediate, high-frequency strike of grapefruit, lemon, and bergamot, cutting through heavy air with clean acidity. Soon, a saturated floral core emerges—dense with hyacinth, gardenia, and honeysuckle—that feels less like a bouquet and more like a greenhouse in full bloom. The transition is steady, moving steadily into a base of plum wood and amber that grounds the initial brightness. It sits close enough for the office, yet the sheer volume of flower notes retains a persistent, airy sillage that lingers on linen throughout a long, humid afternoon.
