Bright citrus and lavender over a soft amber base, in the manner of an old-fashioned eau de Portugal. Sweet-edged and gently herbal, it stays close and comforting.

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.
