By the editors · 2 min readBergamot provides a crisp citrus opening that is fresh and slightly tart, fading quickly into the heart. Lavender dominates the mid-phase with its aromatic, herbal character, complemented by a light jasmine floralcy that adds a touch of sweetness. The base introduces oakmoss, which lends a dry, earthy greenness, alongside leather and patchouli for a rugged, slightly animalic depth. The transition from fresh top to mossy leather base is smooth but distinct, creating a classic aromatic fougère structure. Sillage is intimate after the first hour, with longevity around five hours, suited for cool weather casual wear.
