Scent story
To me this is my grandmother's powder compact — aldehydes first, sparkling and vintage, then violet and ylang opening like the lid coming off: powder, petals, and memories. Carnation adds a spicy warmth; bergamot and orange keep it bright. Iris in the base is the star — orris butter, cool and powdery and impossibly elegant — over musk, sandalwood, vetiver, and the faintest vanilla-amber warmth. Ebony adds a dark wooden depth underneath. It smells like silk saris and old money, like grace you can't buy. Timeless. Beginner-friendly.
