Accord de Vermouth Doux

The herbal bitterness underneath keeps it from ever getting cloying, which is exactly what I wanted from a vermouth accord. Wearing it feels like sitting at a quiet bar with a good cocktail, and it lasts a solid few hours on my skin.

I expected something syrupy but this accord is layered — it opens boozy and herbal, then settles into a warm sweetness that lingers for hours. It's the kind of scent that makes people lean in and ask what you're wearing.

Spritzed this on before a dinner party and kept catching whiffs of it all night. It really does smell like sweet vermouth, that herby-sweet thing with a bit of warmth underneath. Wearing it feels a little fancy, honestly.
