By the editors · 2 min readPeppermint dominates the opening with a cooling, almost frosted-leaf snap that immediately sets a green aromatic tone. Lavender enters next, softening the mint’s edges while reinforcing the aromatic backbone; the pairing reads like crushed herbs left on chilled marble. Sandalwood arrives late, adding dry creaminess that warms the earlier coolness without ever turning sweet or heavy. The scent stays linear: the cool herbal pulse slowly sinks into a pale woody skin-warmth that never fully abandons its initial freshness. Projection stays within arm’s length for about five hours, then hugs skin, making it office-safe yet noticeably crisp. Best worn in spring through early fall when moderate heat can lift the aromatic oils without amplifying sweetness.
