About

Ivory Temptation opens with a juicy, bright burst of nectarine and mandarin, quickly spiced up by a generous hit of cardamom. The heart unfolds into a rich, heady blend of orange blossom and Ylang-Ylang, warmed by cinnamon and clove, giving it a deep, almost syrupy sweetness. The dry down is all about that creamy sandalwood and tonka bean, underscored by earthy patchouli and vetiver, settling into a smooth, musky base that lingers for ages.
