About

Orris & Sandalwood opens with a powdery, almost starchy orris, reminiscent of vintage make-up, immediately softened by a hint of sweet violets and musky warmth. As it settles, an earthy galbanum emerges, interweaving with a subtle, creamy sandalwood and labdanum. This develops into a sophisticated, subtle skin scent with a lingering powdery, amber-woody drydown, offering an intriguing duality of floral depth and woody sensuality.
