By the editors · 2 min readSage and basil crackle open with a cool green snap, their camphor edge slicing through the heat. Mandarin and lemon add a quick sweet-sour sparkle that evaporates within minutes, leaving the mint heart to dominate; spearmint rather than peppermint keeps the profile leafy instead of candy-like. Sandalwood in the base is dry and pale, more Australian than Mysore, acting as a clean blond wood blotter that absorbs the earlier aromatics rather than warming them. The scent stays linear after the ten-minute mark, projecting a quiet woody-fresh aura that sits two inches off skin for about four hours before folding into a skin-close cedar-paper whisper. Designed for 30 °C weather, it performs best as a post-gym cooldown or office refresher on days when the air-conditioning fails.
