Opens with a bright, slightly medicinal bergamot that clears fast, making room for a cool, powdery iris that anchors the heart — not the lipstick kind, more rooty and clean. Ambroxan does the heavy lifting through the dry-down, lending that skin-close, almost airy warmth that reads as expensive without demanding attention.
