By the editors · 2 min readLavender and lemon open with a brisk aromatic-citrus character, sharpened by basil's green herbal edge. Mint amplifies the freshness, while violet leaf contributes a dewy green quality that feels crisp and slightly earthy. Fig leaf adds a milky green nuance, and plum introduces a subtle fruity sweetness contrasted by saffron's warm-spicy leathery tone. The base transitions into vetiver's dry, rooty earthiness supported by cedar's clean woodiness. Amber and vanilla provide a soft, warm foundation that rounds out the composition without overwhelming its green core. This scent maintains a fresh, herbal-aromatic presence throughout its wear, projecting moderately before receding. It is ideal for daytime casual use in spring or summer.
