The top opens floral with iris, gardenia and Egyptian jasmine. In the heart, raspberry, mango, red rose and carnation soften those flowers with a fruity sweetness. The base settles on amber, sandalwood and vanilla for a warm, powdery floor; civet and castoreum add an animalic weight, while oakmoss leaves a green, woody trace.
Overall it reads as an oriental floral. Avon A Stroke of Ariane and Krizia Krazy Krizia have a close profile.
