Scent Description:
The fragrance opens with a crisp burst of lime and mandarin, layered with green-leaf freshness and the subtle spice of pink pepper and coriander. This fresh and bright top creates an effervescent and green introduction. As it transitions, the heart reveals a delicate cherry blossom theme, supported by osmanthus, violet, cyclamen and water lily-an airy floral bouquet with just a whisper of tender almond-sweetness from the osmanthus. Finally, in the base, cedarwood and sandalwood provide a soft woody underpinning, while tonka bean, vanilla and musk warm the scent, giving it a clean, slightly powdery and elegant dry-down. The result is a fragrance anchored in the floral-citrus family, but spun with modern green crispness and a subtle woody-vanilla finish-perfect for those seeking a refined, spring-friendly signature.

Longevity: 7/10 - Most wearers report around 6-8 hours of noticeable scent; some describe even longer but results vary.
Sillage: 6/10 - The initial presence is clear and pleasant, though it settles into a more modest trail after a while.
