Myrrh at the heart shifts the mood into something more contemplative. Its bitter-balsamic resinous character pulls the composition toward incense territory, bridging the bright top to the base without losing the herbal thread.
The base of sandalwood, lavender, olibanum and Virginia cedar is the heart of the matter despite its label. Olibanum reinforces the resinous incense feel, lavender adds aromatic-herbal continuity from above, and the cedar-sandalwood pairing dries and warms the close. The drydown is a quiet, dignified resin-and-herb composition suited to cool weather, casual or evening wear.
