The Window Extrait de Parfum

The ironwood note grounds the lavandin beautifully—it’s dry and woody but not harsh, and the 50 ml bottle feels hefty in the hand. I sprayed it on a scarf three days ago and the desert florals are still lingering in a soft, powdery way. This one’s a keeper for cold evenings.

The ironwood note gives it a smoky, grounded backbone that I wasn’t expecting from a floral—it’s got real depth. I dabbed a little on at noon and could still catch whiffs on my scarf past midnight, which is exactly what I want from an extrait.

I dabbed a little on after my evening shower and could still catch the ironwood note on my wrist the next morning—that lasting power is no joke for a 50 ml bottle. The desert florals come through softer than I expected, which makes it feel mysterious rather than loud.
