Main Accords

What it smells like

Mostly the general smell of flowers, without leaning sharp or sweet. Underneath that, dry and warm, like cedar shavings or the inside of a wooden drawer.

It opens on lily, peony and lily-of-the-valley, moves through eucalyptus, lilac and jasmine, and settles on sandalwood, musk and tonka bean.

  • lily: clean white flower, green and slightly peppery rather than sweet
  • peony: soft pink flower, watery and lightly rosy

It lasts an average amount of time and sits close to the skin after the first hour.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
