What it smells like
The Scent File profile
Bergamot opens bright and brief before iris takes over — powdery but not stiff, carrying a faint green violet edge that keeps it from reading purely feminine. The heart is where it earns its reputation: a soft, slightly cool floral with real presence without shouting. The dry-down leans into sandalwood and tonka, warm and lightly sweet, with amber deepening the base into something almost edible. Musk holds it close to skin, making sillage intimate but persistent — this wears longer than it projects. — Best for cooler months, office or evening, anyone drawn to understated powdery-warm florals.
