Metallique
aldehydes · pink pepper · bergamot
Metallique opens on aldehydes and pink pepper that snap like a cool blade. The heart of heliotrope and hawthorn drifts toward a lily-of-the-valley that feels almost powdery. The base of vanilla, peru balsam and sandalwood stays warm and enveloping, a scent to wear as autumn and winter evenings draw in.
