By the editors · 2 min readOrange and bergamot provide a bright citrus opening that quickly melds into a resinous heart of benzoin and tonka bean. Patchouli adds an earthy depth that contrasts with the sweet balsamic qualities of the heart notes. Incense and vetiver create a dry smoky-woody base that grounds the composition with a slightly austere character. Musk provides a soft skin-scent finish that lingers close to the body. The scent evolves from citrus-aromatic to a resinous-earthy dry-down over three to four hours. Suitable for evening or formal occasions in cool to cold weather.
