Fleur d'Ange

The unusual part is how naturally opposites sit together here. Lime and iris lend a cool, polished edge to flowers that can be rich and heady, especially tuberose. Apricot and blackcurrant syrup then add a dark-fruited sweetness, while Osmanthus keeps the heart softly apricot-toned. Beneath it all, Amber, Guaiac Wood, Sandalwood, and Myrrh create warmth without turning heavy. The composition moves from radiant to sensual, but never loses its floral backbone.

The evolution

The opening arrives with lift: lime and iris make the floral materials feel cool and almost polished, while ylang-ylang and tuberose bring a creamy, slightly spiced depth. Jasmine and rose sharpen the bouquet, and the first impression is bright, fragrant, and distinctly alive. As the hours pass, Osmanthus, blackcurrant syrup, and apricot replace that brightness with ripe fruit and a rounder floral warmth. The heart feels softer, more enveloping, like the same bouquet seen through warmer glass. In the drydown, Amber, Guaiac Wood, Sandalwood, and Myrrh settle close to skin, leaving a woody, resinous trail with a soft animalic edge. Expect the composition to move through its main arc over roughly 4-6 hours, with the florals and fruit fading before the warmer base notes linger in a quieter, more intimate register.
