About

This scent opens with a sharp, effervescent burst of bitter bergamot and bright citron, reminiscent of lemon peel. As the initial zest subsides, a clean and slightly green petitgrain emerges, softened by the delicate, airy sweetness of orange blossom. A subtle, creamy almond note adds a touch of unexpected warmth and smoothness to the otherwise crisp composition, creating a refined, soapy finish that evokes a luxurious spa experience.
