Myrrh
A oriental gourmand fragrance built around myrrh, amber, warm spices. Scent profile not yet written in our editorial pass — the listed notes are the most reliable summary of the wear character until that's filled in.
English Pear & Freesia
Crisp, dewy pear dominates the opening — bright but not candy-sweet, more like biting into cold fruit than smelling a candle. Freesia and white rose lift the heart into a soft, clean floral that reads feminine without being heavy, while melon keeps the whole thing light and slightly aqueous. Patchouli and musk in the dry-down are genuinely subtle, adding just enough warmth to anchor what would otherwise float away entirely. Projection is polite; sillage stays close to the skin by hour two — a well-behaved fragrance that doesn't announce itself across a room. — Made for warm-weather days, office wear, or anyone who wants something easy, pretty, and quietly elegant.
