By the editors · 2 min readEurope Mediterranean Breeze opens with star anise and grapefruit — a fresh-herbal pairing that combines grapefruit's tart brightness with anise's licorice-sweet aromatic quality. The combination reads as bright and slightly unusual, evoking a clean, coastal context.
Musk carries the entire dry-down, pulling the composition toward a simple, skin-close finish. The musk here is doing a lot of structural work — anchoring the herbal-citrus opening without additional support from wood or resin.
The result is a lightweight, clean Mediterranean impression. Brief projection and limited longevity are expected at this level. Suited to summer and casual occasions where something inoffensive and fresh is sufficient.
