Notes, explained
Opening
- Milk Soft, lactonic and creamy. Makes everything around it rounder.
- Nutmeg Warm, woody and slightly sweet. Cosy without being gourmand.
Heart
- Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
- Cashmeran Musky, woody and slightly spicy. Velvety and very persistent.
Dry-down
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
