8.3/10

Excellent

Highly recommendedA crisp bergamot–grapefruit opening moves into a ginger–peach–geranium heart, finishing with a velvety amber–white musk drydown. Expect a polished, evening-leaning character with moderate projection and a lingering, skin-friendly base rather than room-filling power.
