The heart features an aromatic mint facet, described as Ourika Living Mint or mint tea, combined with blue sage to give the fragrance a herbal, slightly aromatic profile. In the base, ambroxan and patchouli add a long‑lasting, warm, woody-amber trail that contrasts with the icy top.The scent is presented in an icy blue flacon designed by Suzanne Dalton, with a metallic Y-cut that visually links it to the Y collection.Available in 60ml and 100ml Eau de Toilette Intense.
