About

A vibrant burst of red currant, raspberry, and grapefruit ignites the senses, developing into a heart of delicate rose and jasmine, softened by a creamy vanilla. The dry down introduces a sophisticated blend of musky ambroxan and a subtle hint of patchouli, creating a sweet, fruity-floral experience that’s undeniably charming.
