About

Metal Beach unfurls with a lively kick of pepper and ginger, given a distinctive edge by pimiento. This energetic opening soon softens into a delicate floral heart where osmanthus takes centre stage, its apricot-like nuance mingling gracefully with cyclamen and water lily. The drydown settles into a comforting embrace of amber, vanilla, and a hint of musk, bringing a subtle warmth that lingers beautifully on the skin.
