What it smells like

The Scent File profile

Opens with a brisk snap of pink pepper and neroli that clears quickly, making room for a heart built around violet, peony, and rose — all blurred together into something more abstract than botanical. The aldehydes do real work here, lifting the florals into soapy, clean-linen territory without turning harsh. Sandalwood and musk anchor the dry-down to skin with a soft, powdery warmth. Projection stays polite throughout; sillage is intimate rather than announcing. Longevity is moderate, around four to six hours. — A spring and summer fragrance for someone who wants to smell like laundered fabric and fresh flowers rather than a perfume.
