While the top notes of bergamot, cassis and mandarin provide a refreshingly green tang, the heart notes, compromising of a combination of rose, magnolia, cinnamon and clove give it a heady spiciness that shrouds the wearer in a veil of intoxicating fragrance. A woody base of sandalwood and oakmoss give it a gently earthy finish.
