By the editors · 2 min readA bright citrus trio opens — orange, lemon, bergamot — flickering quickly before nutmeg arrives. The transition feels abrupt rather than woven, the spice acting as a hinge between the bright top and the dry base.
Tonka bean, vetiver, and tobacco compose the foundation. Tobacco dominates the impression, lending a dry, slightly sweet warmth, while vetiver pulls the composition toward earthiness. Tonka rounds the edges without becoming explicitly gourmand.
The structure is sparse and clear: citrus into spiced tobacco-vetiver. The character reads aromatic and faintly bitter, suited to cool-weather wear and quieter daytime contexts. Projection settles to skin within a few hours, with the tobacco accord remaining longest.
