The composition opens with a sharp citrus trio of petitgrain, lime, and bergamot, the lime adding a particularly cold-cut zest that feels almost soda-like in its lift.

By the editors · 2 min readThe composition opens with a sharp citrus trio of petitgrain, lime, and bergamot, the lime adding a particularly cold-cut zest that feels almost soda-like in its lift. There is a green bitterness underneath that keeps it from going sweet.
In the heart, mint adds a cooling herbal twist while lily of the valley brings a light dewy floralcy. The transition is brisk rather than developmental.
The base settles into damp oakmoss, vetiver, and patchouli, lending an earthy, vegetal floor that pulls the whole composition toward a chypre-cologne hybrid. The overall character is fresh, brisk, and outdoor-appropriate, suited to warm weather and active days, with modest longevity and a clean, polite projection.
