Aldehydes lift it open with that classic soapy-clean fizz, bright bergamot cutting through to keep it from turning powdery too fast. The heart settles into cool, slightly rooty iris — the dominant character here — with the aldehydes softening but never fully dropping out. Dry-down is where the sandalwood and vanilla finally arrive, warming the iris into something creamier and skin-close. Projection is moderate; sillage lingers as a quiet, clean-woody murmur rather than anything loud — a cool-weather skin fragrance for someone who wants polished and understated over sweet or showy.
