Reviewed profile

Blackcurrant and pear brighten a lush heart of iris, jasmine and orange blossom, all melting into patchouli and vanilla. It's warm, sweet and rounded, a familiar comfort with a soft floral glow.

Sweetnessgourmand0.95

Projection, risk and texture describe how a fragrance behaves in a room and on skin. Where wear reports are thin, those scores rest near the middle by design, so a mid-range reading here is a statement about the evidence as much as about the scent. Warmth and sweetness are derived from composition and do not carry that caveat.
