Three citrus notes in the opening

Bergamot opens on a fresh, lightly sweet fruit. Mandarin adds a sun-kissed, luminous sparkle, while lemon brings its acidic, distinctly tangy freshness. The opening of the composition thus takes shape around three zests with distinct registers.

A woody and spicy heart

Sandalwood offers a velvety, warm wood. Iris composes a powdery, buttery facet, leaning toward violet. Ginger warms the tier with its spices, carrying a touch of citrus, and cypress brings a fresh wood with camphor-like accents.

A base of root and musk

Vetiver anchors the base in wood, smoke and earth. Musk adds an animalic warmth with woody undertones, and ambergris extends this vein with a camphor-like wood marked by an animalic note.

A citrus fragrance

Classified as citrus, the composition owes this family to bergamot, mandarin and lemon, citrus fruits whose essences are obtained from their zests. Ginger, carrying a citrus facet, extends this citrus freshness into the heart tier.

What the label declares

After alcohol, water and fragrance, the label declares limonene and citral, molecules abundant in citrus essences such as lemon, as well as linalool, present in bergamot. Geraniol and citronellol evoke rose, coumarin evokes freshly cut hay, and eugenol and isoeugenol evoke clove.
