By the editors · 2 min readClass Act opens in a green herbal register — sage, basil and thyme together, more kitchen-garden than Mediterranean cliché. The herbs are dry and slightly bitter, with thyme's faint medicinal edge giving the top a serious, polished tone.
Jasmine in the heart is a single bright floral note pulling the composition toward something softer; without other florals to support it, it reads as a transition rather than a destination.
The base is the strongest part: sandalwood's creamy wood paired with oakmoss and patchouli builds a quiet chypre foundation, dry rather than damp, with enough earth to carry the herbs through to the end. It wears as a restrained, almost unisex aromatic-chypre — more business-casual than evening, holding shape against the day rather than projecting it.
