By the editors · 2 min readGrapefruit and bergamot launch the composition with a tart, slightly bitter citrus burst. The opening is unmistakably aquatic-fresh in intent, leaning sharp before the citrus settles.
Neroli and black currant carry the heart with an unusual contrast — the neroli giving a clean white-floral lift while the black currant brings its catty, slightly sweet-fruity twist. The pairing keeps the composition from reading as a generic blue-fragrance.
Oakmoss and patchouli anchor the base, pulling the dry-down into chypre-adjacent territory with an earthy, mossy weight that offsets the bright opening. The structure feels more interesting than expected, though projection drops quickly. A clean modern citrus-chypre that wears closer to skin than its opening suggests.
