About

Anima Viva opens with a sophisticated kick of whisky and bright bergamot, immediately setting it apart from your average vanilla. The heart swells with a dark, almost salty vanilla absolute, beautifully balanced by the creamy depth of Mysore sandalwood and the soft muskiness of ambrette. The base settles into a warm, inviting embrace of amber and benzoin, rounded out with a delicate citrus whisper and clean musk, ensuring it's never overtly sweet, but always elegant and refined.
