Composition
Once Upon a Time (2025) is a gourmand extrait built from childhood memories -- tangerine peel, cotton candy, sugared almonds. Mandarin and pink pepper open it; cotton candy, candied almonds and Iso E Super form the heart; castoreum, patchouli, vanilla, cedar and musk ground the base.
Once Upon a Time is nostalgia weaponized: amusement-park sweetness given an adult, animalic backbone by castoreum and musk. It is her 'Emotion Generator' scent about comfort -- warm, enveloping, unashamedly sweet. Beginners: her most crowd-pleasing recent release, though the animalic base keeps it unmistakably Bianchi.
