Proud of You Absolute EDP

Bergamot and cardamom set an energetic, spiced tone at the start, before lavender, cinnamon, and sage bring a herbal warmth to the heart. The fragrance then rests on vanilla, amber, and tonka bean, closing on a sweet, polished note that feels confident without being loud. It has the kind of structure that reads as put together, the sort of scent that suits someone walking into a room with intent.

Reach for it on winter nights when its spice and vanilla combination feels most at home against the cold. Projection is moderate to strong at first, softening gracefully, and the amber tonka base gives it enough longevity to carry through a full evening.
