💧 The Inspiration: The Pond
The actual pool of water where Narcissus sat. Narcissus Water explores the aquatic and floral implications of the myth. It adds a watery, floral dimension to the dry woods. It is green, murky, and beautiful. A pond surrounded by ancient trees.
🧪 The Olfactory Architecture: Water and Stem
The scent opens with Water Accord and Violet Leaf. The heart is Narcissus Flower (Daffodil) and Petitgrain. The base is Wet Wood and Frankincense. It is damp and atmospheric.
