Application Tips
Two sprays to each wrist or behind the ears are sufficient to capture its full warmth. The citrus top notes dissipate quickly, so it’s best applied right before stepping out to enjoy its evolving warmth throughout the day.

The story behind the bottle.
The scent of sun-soaked afternoons spent lounging on a terrace with the gentle hum of cicadas in the background, where the air is filled with the mingling notes of fresh fruit and warm spices.
