By the editors · 2 min readBasil, thyme, and bergamot open in a green herbal chord, the basil sweet-anise and thyme drier and more medicinal. Bergamot keeps the citrus thread bright but secondary to the herbs. The entry reads aromatic and a little rugged.
Jasmine, plum, and rose carry the heart. The flowers soften the herbal opening, plum adds a juicy weight underneath, and rose brings classical roundness. The composition shifts from green-aromatic toward a fuller floral-fruity middle, with the herbs still detectable in the background.
Sandalwood, oakmoss, clove, and patchouli build a chypre-leaning base. Clove adds a warm-spicy bite, oakmoss a green-mineral depth, and patchouli earthy weight. The overall character is a herbal floral-chypre with a spicy-mossy finish, suited to cooler weather and dressed contexts.
