Daring Darling

Noon, with the sun almost overhead and green branches bowed so low by the weight of their fruit that they barely cast a shadow: Daring Darling captures the fullest hour of the day.

Its frame is a green floral built from dark fruit and delicate flowers, then given a twist. Bold blackcurrant, with its deep, sweet-tart fruit, is set beside mellow lavender, whose herbal coolness tempers that richness. The contrast between rich fruit and a cool aromatic flower is where the name's daring lies.

Lavender is also the flower chosen here to carry a sense of elation. Musk draws the trailing note, gathering the contrast of berry and herb into something soft and quiet.
