Fragrance notes
Top notes: Neroli, Cardamom, Caraway — a brisk, fresh opening with a touch of spicy complexity and citrus brightness.
Heart (middle) notes: Tuberose, Ylang-Ylang, Damask Rose — a lush, opulent floral core that exudes feminine elegance and contemporary softness.
Base notes: Patchouli, Virginian Cedar, Sandalwood — a warm, woody foundation that grounds the scent with creamy depth and resinous warmth.
Additional nuances: subtle amber warmth and a hint of musk enrich the dry-down, while a whisper of vanilla or resin lift may emerge over time to enhance the perfume’s velvety finish.
How to use
- Apply to clean, moisturized skin on pulse points (wrists, neck, inner elbows) for optimal diffusion and longevity.
- Hold the bottle 15–20 cm away and spritz in a light, even veil to avoid over-saturation.
- Layer with So Nude body lotion or shower gel to amplify projection and extend wear throughout the day.
- Refresh sparingly after several hours in very dry environments (air conditioning, sun exposure) to maintain a balanced presence.
