The opening leans on neroli and sichuan pepper, then a magnolia and jasmine accord takes over within the first hour. What you'll smell on skin hours in is iris, musk, and ambergris, the base does the heavy lifting here. Comfortable year-round. Most wearers settle on liking it (4.2/5) rather than loving it, a safe rotation addition.
