It opens with the vibrant zing of blood orange and bergamot, softened by the sweet licorice-like warmth of star anise. The heart is a blend of golden honey and lavender, with dragons blood resin adding a touch of mystery.

Sweet Nothingness captures that feeling—the gentle, fleeting comfort of something precious and irreplaceable.
