By the editors · 2 min readLemon and bergamot offer a bright, zesty citrus opening that is straightforward and refreshing, though it lacks significant depth or aromatic development. A faint orange note in the heart provides a subtle, sweet fruity accent that blends seamlessly with the top notes without introducing a distinct transition. Cedar forms the entire base, contributing a dry, woody character that emerges early and remains linear throughout the wear. The composition is simple and primarily citrus-woody, with minimal evolution from the initial spray to the dry-down. Projection is soft and intimate from the start, lasting for a few hours as a close-to-skin scent. This is best for casual daytime wear in warm spring or summer conditions.
