By the editors · 2 min readBlack pepper and citrus open with a brisk, aromatic freshness—pepper's pungent heat contrasts with orange and lemon's zesty brightness. Galbanum adds a sharp, green bitterness that grounds the top notes. Lavender emerges in the heart, its herbal, slightly camphorous aroma blending with labdanum's leathery resin and black currant's tart fruitiness. The base is a classic chypre structure: oakmoss provides an earthy, mossy depth, patchouli contributes an earthy-woody dryness, and sandalwood adds creamy warmth. Vanilla softens the composition with a subtle sweetness that prevents the dry-down from becoming too austere. Sillage is moderate and aromatic, evolving from a spicy-citrus opening to a woody-mossy finish ideal for casual cool-weather wear.
