A warm, aromatic gourmand centered on creamy milk and spiced tea, with a distinctive cardamom-forward opening. The scent opens bright with citrus and sharp, dusty cardamom, quickly transitioning into a soft, layered composition where green tea, ginger, and frangipani mingle with a smooth, lactonic milk note. The drydown reveals a gentle, vanillic base with subtle woody tones, offering a comforting, slightly powdery finish that feels both elegant and embrace-like. It's not overtly sweet, nor is it overly gourmand — instead, it strikes a refined balance between spice, cream, and floral delicacy, evoking memories of a cozy chai latte or a quiet moment with a warm cup of tea. Longevity is impressive, lasting well past 8 hours, though projection is moderate to strong initially and fades to skin scent. The fragrance is widely embraced as unisex, with a gentle, soothing character that leans slightly feminine on skin but easily transitions into a masculine-leaning scent as it dries. Some experience a contrast in perception — a few find it overly milky, sour, or chemical in tone, while others praise its natural, skin-sensible quality and artistic depth, particularly comparing it to Prince Charming or Lira in character. It performs best in cooler months and is suitable for both everyday wear and intimate occasions.
