About

Imagine a plush, sweet vanilla, softly dusted with coconut flakes and delicate heliotrope, then underpinned by a deep, creamy musk and the mystical warmth of palo santo. It's a sophisticated, almost lactonic vanilla that balances its inherent sweetness with an aromatic, woody depth, but some find it overwhelmed by sharp, synthetic notes and musky intensity. It’s an evolving scent that promises a soft, powdery dry-down, but only if your skin agrees.
