About this fragrance
Picture that first true day of fall: the air's gone crisp, the leaves are starting their slow burn, and somebody's finally lit the fireplace. Autumn Equinox opens with a cool snap of minty freshness and crushed green leaves, brightened by sparkling bergamot and bright citrus zest, with a breath of cooling eucalyptus rounding out the chill.
The heart settles into golden, spiced comfort: warm cinnamon mingles with powdery violet petals and dewy rose, striking that perfect balance between crisp outdoor air and cozy seasonal warmth.
It all lands on a fireside-glow base of rich cedarwood, creamy sandalwood, and warm tonka bean, touched by a whisper of clove and sweet vanilla, wrapped in soft powdery musk and warm woods that linger like the last light of an autumn afternoon. Compare to Lush® brand The Smell of Weather Turning™.
