Terracotta

Mostly creamy heady flowers like jasmine and gardenia, rich and full. Underneath that, sugary and rounded, closer to dessert than to fruit.

It opens on tiare flower, coconut and bergamot, moves through jasmine, ylang-ylang and orange blossom, and settles on vanilla and musk.

• coconut: creamy and sweet, with a suncream quality
• bergamot: bright citrus peel, sharper and greener than orange. The note that makes Earl Grey tea smell the way it does

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.
