Mood Stones Blush Wood

The house names three tiers: apple and rose in the top, honeysuckle and gardenia in the heart, vanilla absolute and cedar in the base. The top and the heart are accords.

From apple to vanilla

A juicy apple and a soft, slightly powdery rose open the fragrance and dress it in immediate charm. The honeysuckle and creamy gardenia accords add a dreamy, sunlit swirl at the center.

The base rests on a rich vanilla absolute and a clean cedar, which anchor the fragrance in warmth and depth. The house places Blush Wood among the woody floral fragrances.
