By the editors · 2 min readMint, grapefruit, and lavender open together — clean and invigorating, with lime adding a brief tart edge. The freshness has an aromatic character rather than a purely aquatic one, grounded by herbal tarragon and the faint heat of nutmeg and cinnamon moving in underneath.
The base brings leather and guaiac wood, which pull the composition away from fresh-fougère territory toward something drier and more rugged. Patchouli and musk add modest depth without darkening the overall tone significantly. Tonka bean rounds the dry-down with a faint almond-like softness.
Overall, this is a structured aromatic fougère — fresh at the top, progressively drier and leathery through the base. Competent and versatile.
