By the editors · 2 min readGrapefruit dominates the opening with a sharp, pithy bitterness that bergamot softens into a cool, green citrus accord. Neroli enters quickly, adding a honeyed orange-bloss floral lift that keeps the citrus from turning sour while extending its lifespan. The heart remains bright and airy, never heavy, as the white floral facet amplifies the zest rather than competing with it. Sandalwood emerges late as a clean, creamy woods base that anchors the citrus without adding sweetness, letting the grapefruit skin note linger as a quiet skin scent. Projection stays close, projecting about a foot for three hours before settling to the body. Its light structure reads unisex and office-safe, best worn in warm weather when its refreshing bite can cut through humidity.
