The top pairs black raspberry, tomato leaf, blackcurrant and rhubarb, giving a fruity freshness with a green edge. In the heart, carnation, Bourbon geranium, petitgrain and galbanum build a floral, spicy garden feel. The base of myrrh, sandalwood, ebony, oud and opoponax settles it on an earthy, woody floor, while the sweet accord softens that depth. Together they keep it well away from an ordinary floral bouquet.
