A surrealist citrus, Steamed Rainbow blends technicolor brightness with vegetal softness. Blood mandarin, orange, and elemi open with juicy sparkle, while the heart—grass, almond blossom, and cedar—adds an unexpected greenness. Violet and vetiver ground the scent in delicate contrast. Playful and experimental, this is a fragrance that feels like sun refracted through mist.
