By the editors · 2 min readPetitgrain, bergamot, and galbanum open with a sharp, slightly bitter green edge before lemon softens the brightness. The transition is quick, with lavender stepping in to bridge the citrus opening to the deeper base without overstaying.
Vetiver anchors the drydown firmly — dry, rooty, and earthy — while benzoin and amber add a resinous warmth that keeps the composition from feeling austere. Vanilla rounds the base gently without pushing it toward sweetness.
The overall character is an earthy aromatic leaning toward fougère territory: structured but approachable, with vetiver doing the heavy lifting throughout. The amber and benzoin ensure it stays warm even as the green top fades.
