About

Opens with an intriguing duo of star anise and juicy orange, softened by a hint of pear. As it settles, a sweet, powdery floral heart emerges, dominated by orchid and creamy ylang-ylang, with a touch of warming ginger and plush plum. The base deepens into a velvety blend of vanilla and amber, supported by a clean musk, creating a smooth, inviting trail that's both alluring and comforting.
