Love Bird

What makes Love Bird interesting is the balance between its sparkling opening and grounded drydown. Turkish galbanum brings a resinous snap, while lemon, bergamot, and key lime create a clean citrus lift. Australian violet leaf and Thai basil keep the heart green and aromatic, with jasmine, neroli, and orange blossom adding white floral polish. Oakmoss, ambrette seed, and vetiver then anchor the composition, giving it the subtle pull of damp bark, soft skin, and forest floor rather than a relentlessly sweet floral finish.

The evolution

The first impression is movement: sharp citrus and leafy green notes flicker quickly across the skin, with galbanum adding a mineral, resinous snap. As the opening softens, jasmine, neroli, orange blossom, violet leaf, and Thai basil gather into a clearer floral heart. It feels less like a bouquet and more like a flowering hedge after rain, bright, aromatic, and alive. The florals don't sit alone for long. Later, the floral character recedes while oakmoss, ambrette seed, and vetiver take over, and the composition turns woody, earthy, and quietly green, with a restrained musky softness that keeps it close to the wearer. As it dries down further, the citrus brightness gives way to shaded leaves and cool stone, and the green notes settle into a steadier, more mineral dryness.
