Heaven Can Wait Editions de Parfums Frédéric Malle 2023

A large cloud of ambery, slightly dusty clove at the start. However, this quickly softens and the fruity notes come through. Peach and plum are subtle and, together with carrot seeds and iris, transform the fragrance into a powdery, light melange. The spices, the fruits and the light components are wonderfully balanced and create a cozy, relaxed, slightly tart aura. The structure has something of an autumnal Imagination. Maybe that's why I like it so much. And: finally a carnation that I like! Not the star of the show, but a supporter in an overall restrained, cozy and yet self-confident composition.
