By the editors · 2 min readGalbanum and bergamot create a sharp, green-citrus opening that feels brisk and slightly aldehydic. Gardenia and peach add a soft floral-fruity nuance that tempers the initial greenness. Jasmine, lily of the valley, and rose form a complex floral heart, while iris and narcissus introduce a powdery earthiness. The base combines oakmoss and vetiver for a chypre-like dryness, complemented by ambergris's salty warmth and patchouli's earthy depth. Myrrh and castoreum provide a subtle animalic and balsamic richness. This fragrance evolves significantly from a green floral to a mossy, animalic oriental with impressive longevity. Sillage is strong initially, settling to a moderate projection that lasts over twelve hours. Best for formal evenings in cool weather.
