By the editors · 2 min readBergamot opens the composition with a clean citrus lift, light and unforced. It neither sharpens nor sweetens — it simply clears the air.
Cedar arrives in the heart as a dry, pencil-shaving woodiness, quietly structural. The sandalwood from the general pyramid adds a smoother, creamier layer beneath it, softening cedar's edges without blunting them. Amber brings a faint resinous warmth.
Musk settles close to skin, finishing the fragrance in a way that feels more like a residue than a statement. The overall impression is minimal and understated — a short, uncomplicated arc from citrus to pale wood to warm skin. Transparency is its defining quality.
