Dark Rebel

Dark Rebel opens with rum — a warm, slightly sweet, almost boozy note that doesn't read as literal alcohol so much as the atmosphere of a room where it's been poured.

John Varvatos

The opening announces itself with a leathery dryness and a thyme-like herbaceousness—not green or fresh, but dusty and slightly medicinal, like the inside of an old apothecary cabinet.

Vintage

The opening arrives with a peculiar coolness—basil and fennel collide in a bracing, almost medicinal swirl that feels more apothecary than cologne counter.

Artisan Blu

The opening is immediate and Mediterranean—lavender and basil cut through with bergamot's brightness, like walking into a sunlit herb garden rather than a conventional cologne counter.

Artisan Black

Artisan Black opens with a jolt of bright herbaceous energy—mint and basil cutting through citrus—before quickly settling into something darker and more textured.

Artisan Acqua

The opening is all green bite—galbanum arrives sharp and resinous, almost medicinal, cutting through with the kind of clarity you associate with a good herbal tincture.
