About this fragrance
Lemon Pound Cake opens with a bright, zesty burst of lemon and citrus, sharpened by a surprising touch of crisp green leaves, the kind of combo that smells like the icing is still warm.
The heart is pure bakery magic. A soft petal of rose drifts through the warm batter, an unexpected touch that keeps the loaf from smelling like lemon alone, capturing that fresh-from-the-oven moment when it's still steaming on the counter.
It settles into a smooth, comforting base of vanilla and spun sugar, warmed by a pinch of clove and tonka bean, grounded with soft woods. Sweet, nostalgic, and downright cozy, this one smells like a slice fresh off the cooling rack.
