Blackberry Tonic opens with a crisp, tart blackberry accord lifted by a delicate hint of lily-of-the-valley, creating a fresh and delicate floral-fruity profile. The center features a subtle jasmine, adding a faint, soft floral depth that maintains the balance between sweetness and lightness. The base settles into a smooth, powdery musk blended with soft woody notes and a touch of amberwood, giving the scent a restrained, clean finish that lingers gently. It carries a quietly sophisticated character—neither overly sweet nor overpowering—making it feel more refined than standard fruity musks. While the longevity is modest on most skin types, some users report unexpectedly long wear, particularly in cooler conditions or when applied to hair. The fragrance evokes comparisons to Lalique Amethyst and Trish McEvoy’s blackberry scents, with its combination of tart fruit, floral transparency, and musk foundation. It's best suited for daytime wear in spring and summer, with a sillage that remains intimate to moderate, making it ideal for personal, casual, or professional settings where subtlety is prized. The minimalist simplicity and clean texture make it an excellent palette cleanser and layering option.
