By the editors · 2 min readLavender opens cool and camphoraceous, immediately setting a barbershop tone that the saffron later warms with leathery hay facets. The heart pairing keeps the lavender sharp while adding a faint iodine sweetness that prevents the composition from turning purely herbal. Sandalwood arrives early in the dry-down, creamy and dry, cushioned by clean ambroxan shimmer that extends the lavender’s airy projection. Musk rounds the edges, turning the accord into a soft woody skin scent within three hours, leaving only a whisper of blond wood and warmed linen. Projection stays polite, extending barely beyond shirt-collar distance, making it office-safe yet noticeably masculine. Cool spring and early fall days suit it best, especially for casual wear or post-gym refresh when you want clean without citrus. The brief pyramid keeps evolution linear, but the saffron twist gives inexpensive lavender a subtle upscale tweak.
