As the fragrance evolves, the heart reveals a soothing tea note, lending a soft, calming aura that bridges the transition from the vibrant opening to the deeper, more grounded base. This gentle tea aroma creates a serene middle phase, enveloping the senses with its comforting qualities. The base of the fragrance is where the rich, creamy vanilla merges with the earthy, woody tones of vetiver. This blend forms a luxurious, balanced foundation, with the vanilla's sweetness beautifully counteracting the vetiver's dry depth.
