About

Opens with a tempting hit of sugary sweetness, setting a seductive tone. This quickly melts into a lush heart where plush, jammy rose meets the subtle earthiness of violet and a beautifully clean, non-aggressive oud. The base is an utterly creamy dream of sandalwood, warm vanilla, and a hint of tonka bean, adding comforting depth and a touch of gourmand delight. It's a rich, enveloping composition that balances opulence with wearability.
