Fragrance Notes and Experience
The fragrance opens with a spicy, bright bouquet that sets the stage for a lush floral heart. Top notes include cloves, gardenia, coriander, orange blossom, basil, peach, and bergamot, delivering a nuanced welcome that is both inviting and unexpected. The heart unfolds into a bouquet of tuberose, ylang-ylang, lavender, iris, jasmine, rosemary, rose, and orchid, creating a sophisticated bloom that feels graceful and confident. The base anchors the scent in warmth and depth with cloves, myrrh, sandalwood, lavender, amber, opoponax, vetiver, musk, patchouli, and a touch of creamy coconut for a subtle tropical warmth. The overall result is an amber floral that exudes elegance, comfort, and timeless femininity, with a refined projection that lingers without overpowering.

How to Use
- Hold the bottle 15–20 cm (6–8 inches) from your skin and spray lightly on pulse points (wrists, neck, behind ears) to warm the fragrance with your body heat
- For fuller sillage, apply after a light shower when your skin is hydrated and pores are open; consider a light application to the décolletage for a soft aura across the day
- Layer with Oscar de la Renta body lotion or shower gel to enhance projection and longevity without overwhelming the senses
- Avoid rubbing the wrists together after spraying, as this can crush the delicate top notes and diminish the fragrance’s finesse
- Reapply as needed based on your activity and environment; 1–2 light sprays typically suffice for day wear, 2–3 for evening events
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the scent over time
