By the editors · 2 min readBergamot opens with a bright, sharp citrus lift that quickly softens into a herbal aromatic character. Lavender and violet combine in the heart, creating a powdery floral accord with a cool, slightly sweet texture. Leather emerges early, adding a dry, slightly rugged edge that contrasts with the floral softness. Tonka bean and vetiver ground the base with a sweet, earthy warmth that blends into the leather. The composition remains relatively linear after the first hour, maintaining its herbal-powdery-leather balance. Projection is moderate initially, settling to an intimate skin scent with average longevity, suited for casual fall and winter wear.
