About

Opens with a zesty burst of mandarin and bergamot, surprisingly followed by a hay-like, almost bready warmth from the barley and bran. A soft, clean rose then unfurls, intertwined with an aromatic vetiver, all subtly sweetened by tonka bean and a hint of intriguing sesame. It’s a multifaceted journey, blending citrus, florals, and unusual gourmand nuances into a harmonious, often creamy drydown.
