By the editors · 2 min readBergamot opens with a brisk, slightly bitter citrus edge that quickly yields to galbanum's sharp, resinous green bite, creating an almost winter-cool forest impression. The galbanum dominates the heart, pushing its leafy, stem-crushed character forward while the bergamot's brightness lingers as a thin metallic thread underneath. Oakmoss soon blankets the green accord, adding a damp, earthy thickness that muffles the earlier snap and pulls the scent toward a cool, shaded ground. Amber and musk arrive together in the dry-down: the amber supplies a dry, resinous warmth without sweetness, while clean white musk shears off any rough edges, leaving a soft, grey-green haze that sits close to skin. Projection stays reserved, extending no more than arm's length for about six hours, making it an easy office wear in cool spring or rainy summer days when something leafy yet polite is wanted.
