Fragrance structure
How it develops
Iris and cypress open with a cool, silvery powder, while juniper adds a clean green edge. Myrrh and patchouli then warm the center, giving the powder a resinous depth without making it smoky. In the drydown, woody notes are joined by honey, vanilla, amber, musk and a discreet leather accent. The path moves from airy mineral clarity to a soft, honeyed wood veil that stays elegant rather than gourmand.
