By the editors · 2 min readPetitgrain and lime provide a sharp, green-citrus opening that is aromatic and slightly bitter. Bergamot adds a brighter, sweeter citrus facet that tempers the initial green intensity. Bamboo contributes a crisp, watery green character that feels fresh and slightly ozonic in the heart. Oakmoss and vetiver create a dry, earthy, and mossy base that is classic and slightly woody. The scent is linear, maintaining a fresh green-aromatic character from top to base with minimal evolution. It has intimate projection and moderate longevity, ideal for spring and summer casual outdoor wear.
