By the editors · 2 min readLemon and bergamot open with clean, precise citrus — bright without being tart, effortless in the way that costs money. Neither lingers long; both do their job and step back.
Cinnamon and rose form an unusual pairing in the heart: warm spice against a cool floral. The cinnamon reads softer here than it typically would, more warmth than bite, while the rose is dry rather than dewy. Together they bridge the citrus top and woody base with something quietly interesting.
The base is deep and well-proportioned. Vetiver provides the spine — grassy, earthy, slightly smoky — while cedar and patchouli add dry complexity. Amber and musk hold it warm and clean through a long drydown. A composed, unhurried masculine built to last.
