The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2017 by Donna Karan, Cashmere Veil is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance that captures the essence of modern elegance. The composition opens with plum blossom and bergamot, creating a fresh yet sophisticated accord. As it develops, rose and heliotrope add a soft floral heart, while patchouli and sandalwood ground the scent in earthy warmth. Vanilla rounds out the base, offering a powdery sweetness that lingers on the skin.

How to wear it

Cashmere Veil's fresh top notes are fleeting, so apply it in layers for sustained wear. Focus on pulse points like wrists and neck to ensure the powdery vanilla base is noticeable throughout the day.
