The Only One

Violet and iris lay down a powdery, almost cosmetic texture that roasted coffee darkens instead of sweetening, before vanilla and patchouli close on a woody warmth. A powdery floral, not a dessert.

La Vie Est Belle

Iris and praline: the noble meets the gourmand. Openly sweet, but held by a floral framework that keeps it from turning to candy.
