By the editors · 2 min readSeries 5 imagines five fruit sherbets, and Peppermint (2003) is the coldest of the set. The opening is exactly its name: a sharp, candied mint, more sorbet than herbal, that immediately reads as cooling rather than freshening.
The heart pivots unexpectedly into spice and floral — white pepper, cardamom, red berries, and rose — which keeps the mint from reading too one-note. Without that pivot the drydown of white musk and amber would feel like a quick exit; instead it lands soft and slightly powdered, with a fruity-floral memory still hanging in the trail. A summer fragrance that doesn't share aesthetic with the typical citrus or marine. Light projection, moderate length.
