Not for everyone, though it reminds me of Givenchy’s Organchy; Black M by Micallef is more addictive and personal. Citrus, neroli, ylang and benzoin create a base you don’t want to fade. It has development, isn’t linear, not lactonic but tries to be. A yellow floral that goes from fresh to warm, talc-softened, on a floral journey where, if they tell me there’s gardenia, I’ll believe them. 🕯️ 7.5/10.🔥
