By the editors · 2 min readA burst of spiced citrus announces itself immediately—cinnamon dusted over grapefruit and bergamot—then quickly softens into something unexpectedly refined. The opening's brightness gives way to a pale iris and orange blossom accord that hovers between clean and resinous, neither particularly sweet nor austere.
What distinguishes this from typical masculine citrus-woods is the incense layering in the base. Frankincense and myrrh lend a smoky, contemplative quality while labdanum and amber provide warmth without heaviness. The result feels less like a fuel station (despite the house name) and more like a modern take on church incense translated for everyday wear.
It suits someone drawn to aromatic freshness but weary of aquatics—a grounded alternative that reads casual rather than ceremonial, despite its resinous backbone. The projection is moderate, the longevity respectable.
