📚 The Inspiration: F. Scott Fitzgerald
Fragile luxury, roaring parties, and a hidden hardness beneath a silk dress. The Great Gatsby captures the decadent, atmospheric soul of Daisy Buchanan. It highlights the Champagne Citrus, Iris Powder, and Supple Leather. It is intellectual and tragic.
🧪 The Olfactory Architecture: Fizz and Hide
The scent opens with Sparkling Grapefruit (The Fizz). The heart is Iris and Mimosa. The base is White Leather and Musk. It is atmospheric.
