By the editors · 2 min readLemon and bergamot open with a classic, clean citrus freshness — bright and brief, establishing the fragrance's fundamentally accessible character. The opening reads as familiar and polished.
Moss, oakmoss, and sandalwood begin to emerge, adding earthy, green complexity that shifts the character toward a chypre-adjacent territory. Guaiac wood and vetiver deepen the base further, while amber and vanilla soften the potentially austere woody-mossy core.
The dry-down is a warm, mossy-woody accord with amber depth — the citrus long gone, the overall effect is of a classic elegant composition. Eight base notes create a layered, evolving dry-down that rewards time on skin.
