By the editors · 2 min readMint and grapefruit open with a fresh aromatic burst that feels cooling and slightly tart from bergamot's citrus sharpness. Cardamom adds a subtle spicy warmth to the floral heart where jasmine and rose blend with lily of the valley's green freshness. Apricot and lemon provide a fruity brightness that prevents the composition from becoming overly floral or woody. Sandalwood and cedar create a dry woody base that grounds the scent with musk adding softness to the dry-down. Projection remains moderate for the first two hours before settling close to skin, lasting about five hours and fitting spring or summer casual wear.
