By the editors · 2 min readBergamot and mandarin open with a fresh citrus brightness, anise and basil arriving immediately to add green, slightly medicinal character. The combination is sharp and aromatic without being aggressive.
In the heart, basil holds its herbal edge and anise contributes a faintly sweet-licorice thread. There is no dominant floral presence — the composition stays in the aromatic-herbal register throughout its evolution.
Sandalwood, guaiac, and cedar provide a clean woody base that dries down quietly without much resin or warmth. The overall impression is of a cool, green-woody aromatic suited to warm days and professional settings. Projection is moderate and the drydown is understated.
