Notes, explained
Opening
- Green Apple Tart, crunchy and sharp. Cleaner and cooler than red apple.
- Freesia Crisp, slightly peppery floral. Clean and a bit synthetic in a good way.
- Peach Fuzzy, warm and slightly creamy. Soft rather than sharp.
Heart
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
- Damask Rose The rich, jammy, honeyed rose. Deep and slightly wine-like.
- Ylang-Ylang Banana-custard floral. Rich, tropical and slightly rubbery.
Dry-down
- Virginia Cedarwood The pencil-shaving one specifically. Dry, sharp and slightly sweet.
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
