Rose, coffee and smoked vanilla.
Coffee-rose richness met by smoky vanilla — dramatic, dinner-onwards.
Adds an uplifting citrus accessory to anything richer — works whenever a scent feels too heavy for the weather.
Layering Tip
Spray the heavier scent first, then the lighter one on top. Start with two scents — more than three quickly becomes muddled. Always test on skin first.
