By the editors · 2 min readBlack pepper and bergamot open with a sharp, spice-citrus brightness — the pepper's dry heat alongside bergamot's familiar citrus. Nutmeg and clary sage fill the heart: nutmeg adding warm dry spice, clary sage contributing a herbal-musky quality that bridges toward the base.
Benzoin and patchouli anchor the base in resinous warmth and earthy depth. The benzoin adds balsamic sweetness that rounds the spice, while patchouli provides the characteristic dark, rooty earthiness.
This is a spiced aromatic on a resinous patchouli base — pepper-led from the beginning, deepening through clary sage into the benzoin-patchouli warmth. A well-constructed, dry aromatic for cooler weather. Suits casual and work contexts where something understated and spice-forward is appropriate.
