By the editors · 2 min readNeroli dominates the opening, its honeyed orange-blossom radiance sharpened by bergamot and lemon until the accord glows like back-lit citrus peel. Petitgrain arrives early, dragging a dry, twig-green stroke across the sweetness and pulling the composition toward a more austere white-floral heart. Ambergris washes in first in the base, lending a cool, mineral-salt sheen that makes the lingering citrus feel aquatic; patchouli follows with clean, leaf-dust earthiness while musk swells underneath, softening edges and extending wear. Over two hours the scent folds into a pale, salty skin-wood, still flickering with neroli but weighted by quiet musk. Projection stays polite, a one-arm embrace rather than a cloud, yet the marine-tinged ambergris keeps it interesting through a summer workday.
