By the editors · 2 min readPetitgrain opens green and bittersweet, with bergamot's citric lift, galbanum's sap-bitter snap, and myrrh already lacing a quiet smoky-resinous shadow underneath. The first minutes feel cool and ecclesiastical, almost stone-cold.
Cinnamon warms the heart with a dry bark-spice glow, ylang-ylang creamy and faintly tropical, cedar dry, and clary sage threading a sage-herbal pulse through the bouquet. The base then deepens into incense territory: frankincense smoke, benzoin's balsamic-vanillic warmth, sandalwood creamy, tonka soft-sweet, amber glowing, and tobacco's leathery-honeyed depth pulling the late hours into a darker, more meditative register.
Overall character: a sacred-incense composition with warm-spicy and tobacco-sweet undertones — projecting moderately, lingering long as a contemplative resinous trail.
