By the editors · 2 min readBergamot opens in a familiar bright citric flash, immediately giving way to lavender's purple aromatic sweep. The structure announces a classical fougere shape from the first minute.
The heart is brief and centred entirely on the lavender, with no spicy, herbal or floral expansion to complicate the path between top and base. The simplicity is deliberate.
Sandalwood, amber and musk close the base in a soft warm drydown, the sandalwood creamy, the amber rounding everything into a gentle finish, and the musk smoothing the edges. There is no smoke, no leather, no spice — just a clean aromatic settling into warm wood. Overall the character is a pared-back lavender-fougere, mild and inoffensive, well-suited to office and casual daytime wear.
