About

Opens with a brisk, zesty bergamot that quickly melts into a surprisingly sweet vanilla heart. There's a subtle, earthy patchouli undertone adding depth, while the base grounds it with a soft muskiness. Any oud present is more of a background hum than a dominant note, often overshadowed by the pervasive sweetness and citrus.
