By the editors · 2 min readLemon, cardamom, and bergamot open in a bright spiced-citrus rush, the cardamom adding a green herbal lift to the lemon's zest. The first impression is crisp and lively, more cologne than oriental.
Sandalwood and Virginia cedar take the heart, the sandalwood creamy and the cedar dry and pencil-shaving sharp. There is a smooth wood-spice middle that begins to warm the cool top into something more substantial.
The base is ambergris and vanilla, lending a salty-warm sweet finish with a slight animalic shimmer. The overall character is a refined citrus-amber, the spiced opening transitioning into a luminous wood-amber dryout with a soft skin-musk feel, suitable for warm or cool wear.
