Féraud pour Homme Féraud 2001 Cologne

By the editors · 2 min readGalbanum slices through the citrus trio with a raw green blade, turning lemon's brightness into something almost metallic while bergamot adds a peppery edge. Sandalwood arrives early, its creamy wood already tempering the galbanum's bite before magnolia's cool wax-petal note floats in, stretching the heart into a pale woody-floral expanse. The dry-down is moss dominant: a dry, mineral oakmoss that swallows the remaining citrus oils and pins the sandalwood to the skin, while musk supplies only a clean lift rather than warmth. Projection stays within arm's length for about five hours, then collapses to a soft woody-moss skin scent that feels office-appropriate yet unmistakably masculine. Cool spring and early fall mornings fit its green brightness best, yet the mossy base keeps it wearable on humid days when heavier woods would suffocate.
