Composition & Character
How It Wears
A Signature Fragrance
Vanilla
Vanilla is the scent of childhood memories and cozy nights by the fire. Derived from the cured pods of orchids native to Mexico, it has a rich sweetness that can range from creamy and milky in texture to deep and almost smoky. Its versatility makes it a staple in perfumery, capable of adapting its character to complement both light citrus notes and heavier woody accords.
Chestnut
Chestnut is a scent that captures the essence of earthy richness and subtle sweetness, reminiscent of fallen leaves and the comforting aroma wafting from freshly baked chestnuts. This note is often derived through synthetic means to mimic its natural woody and balsamic character, which can be challenging to extract directly.
