By the editors · 2 min readRosemary and cardamom open with a clean, herbal sharpness, anise threading through with a faintly medicinal edge. The opening is brisk rather than sweet, leaning into the aromatic-spice register common to early-2000s masculines.
As the top notes settle, patchouli grounds the composition with earthy depth, while sandalwood smooths the rougher herbal edges. The musk is quiet but persistent, keeping the whole structure close to the skin.
The overall character is straightforward and functional — a spiced aromatic with a woody-earthy drydown and no particular surprises. Works well in cooler weather and low-key settings where presence matters more than projection.
