The Dry-Down

As it dries down, the base reveals a blend of amber, vanilla, and musks, resulting in a creamy, soft scent that gently lingers close to the skin. This beautifully brings out the vanilla in a refined manner, leaving a delicate, non-intrusive trail of warmth that grows subtly sweet as the hours pass.
