By the editors · 2 min readBasil and bergamot up top with violet adding a powdered-green softness — the opening reads like a polished aromatic, a little old-school in its restraint.
The heart is herbal: sage and lavender, both keeping the composition dry and aromatic rather than letting it tip into anything sweet. Then the base loads up the warmth — labdanum and amber together build a resinous core, patchouli adds earthy depth, musk smooths the joints.
The overall arc is a classic aromatic-amber: bright herbs giving way to a long warm resinous dry-down that holds close to the skin for hours. A cold-weather, evening-coded composition that wears like comfort more than statement.
