About

Warm Bulb opens with a surprisingly realistic hit of dusty, peppery electricity, evoking the scent of a hot lightbulb or an old, humming computer. As it settles, the dry paper and subtle tobacco leaf notes emerge, mingling with a soft, powdery immortelle. The base rounds out with a warm, slightly musky vanilla, amber, and a whisper of sandalwood, creating a curious, almost unsettling coziness.
