About

Opens with a juicy burst of blackcurrant and pear, quickly giving way to a powdery heart of iris and jasmine, where the iris adds a creamy, almost lactonic softness. The dry down settles into a deliciously sweet praline and vanilla base, tempered by a clean, lingering white musk that prevents it from becoming cloying, despite its undeniable sweetness. A rich, warm, and inviting gourmand.
