By the editors · 2 min readSage and lemon create an aromatic citrus opening that feels fresh and slightly herbal. Iris and violet introduce a powdery floral heart that softens the initial sharpness elegantly. Lavender adds a clean aromatic quality that bridges the top and heart notes smoothly. Sandalwood provides a creamy woody base, while leather and ambergris contribute a animalic, slightly salty depth. Vetiver grounds the composition with an earthy, dry texture that prevents it from becoming too sweet. Projection is moderate initially but settles to a skin-close scent within two hours. Longevity is good, making it suitable for casual or work settings in temperate weather. This scent balances powdery florals with earthy leather in a versatile, modern fougère style.
