This fragrance presents a warm, honeyed jasmine sambac that unfolds with a soft, creamy depth, balanced by herbal marigold and a subtly sweet benzoin base. It opens with a vibrant, airy floral burst—distinctly jasmine sambac—that tapers into a richer, more mature profile as the honey and amber notes deepen, giving it a pleasantly reverent warmth. The scent lingers through the evening, with robust longevity and moderate projection that pulls close yet remains noticeable. While some find the development too sweet or the dry-down too mild, many describe it as a refined, feminine floral that evokes warm tropical evenings, unapologetically floral with a touch of olive garden elegance. It feels more suited to spring and summer but can be worn year-round for those drawn to an intimate, layered floral experience. Some compare it to a warm, natural jasmine with few of the volatile or indolic pitfalls common in other fragrances, offering a clean, sophisticated finish without being overly sweet or foody.
