The Scent Experience

Layton opens with a beautifully balanced accord of crisp apple, bright bergamot, and aromatic lavender — fresh and inviting, yet unmistakably sophisticated. The heart blooms into a lush floral bouquet of geranium, jasmine, and violet that adds a regal, powdery richness. The base of sandalwood, vanilla, guaiac wood, and cardamom creates a warm, creamy, and deeply sensual finish that lingers for hours — the olfactory equivalent of a perfectly tailored evening coat.
