Lustre begins with a spark – a burst of effervescent cardamom that fills the air with spicy vitality. The illumination is extended and softened by orris – a uniquely powdery material that adds a sheen of luxurious romanticism, causing the composition to glow with a rich elegance. The white creaminess of the orris is furthered by sandalwood, whose smooth personality projects a sense of perpetual seamlessness. At the scent’s conclusion, a delectable vanilla embraces the whole with warm, lingering sophistication.
