The scent reads as a single floral composition: jasmine and gardenia form the body, while hyacinth and sweet violet add a green-leaning freshness. Heliotrope and ylang-ylang soften it with sweetness, the powdery accord leaves a gentle smoothness behind, and a spicy touch stays in the background among the flowers. The overall impression is a clean, delicate flower garden. Pacifica French Lilac (Perfume) and Bud Parfums Scarlet have a close profile.
