What it smells like
The Scent File profile
Opens with a luminous neroli — bright, slightly bitter citrus-floral — that softens quickly as muguet pulls it toward a clean, dewy heart. The skin musk and ambrette do the heavy lifting through the dry-down, creating that barely-there warmth that reads as a better version of your own skin rather than a recognizable perfume. Sandalwood and white cedar ground everything without announcing themselves; projection stays intimate, sillage is a ghost trail at best. Transparent and addictive in its restraint — best worn close to the skin in warm weather or whenever you want to smell like yourself, only better.
