By the editors · 2 min readGalbanum slices through the opening with a resinous green blade, sharpening the bergamot and grapefruit into an almost crystalline citrus accord that feels frost-bitten rather than juicy. The heart swaps brightness for structure: iris powders the cedar planks while patchouli adds cool earth, turning the fragrance into a dry, flaked-wood surface dusted with mineral makeup. Musk and sandalwood arrive late, softening the splinters but keeping the profile austere; thyme lingers as a discreet aromatic echo rather than a culinary accent. Wear time is solid office-day length, projecting no farther than shirt-collar distance, and the scent stays linear once the green flash settles. Best suited to crisp spring mornings or air-conditioned interiors where its restrained woody freshness won’t compete with heat.
