It’s a unisex fragrance I reach for whenever I’m in the mood for something light, clean and subtle, the kind of your skin, but better scent. The composition opens with a luminous bergamot that quickly gives way to an accord of bitter almond, gently lifted by a touch of anise. Almond is clearly the leading note here, smelling like a freshly cracked almond kernel or marzipan with a drier, slightly cosmetic character, reminiscent of an elegant almond hand cream. The fragrance remains airy and refined, gradually becoming softer and creamier thanks to sandalwood. It’s a very minimalist scent with something deeply comforting about it. To me it evokes the smell of clean skin, a freshly laundered shirt and delicate almond scented skincare. Longevity on my skin is around three hours, and the projection stays fairly close to the skin.
