Heart & Development
A powdery, slightly almond tone from heliotrope is supported by hawthorn and muguet, softening the metallic sheen and keeping the profile modern and minimalist.
Dry-down & Base
Ambrette and vanilla add a plush, musky sweetness. Sandalwood and Peru balsam lend creamy warmth for a smooth, quietly sensual trail.
