By the editors · 2 min readNeroli opens bright and slightly honeyed, its orange-bloss facet immediately setting a clean, sunlit tone. Cardamom slips in underneath, lending a cool, gingery lift that keeps the citrus from turning sweet while vetiver's dry grass smoke begins to creep up from the base. Virginia cedar adds pencil-sharp wood that anchors the airy top, giving the composition a tailored spine rather than letting it float away. As the musk warms on skin, the fragrance tilts greener: the neroli softens to a muted white buzz, vetiver's earthier side emerges, and cedar polishes the finish to a matte wood. Projection stays polite, a skin-to-arm's length veil ideal for office or humid days. Overall character is crisp, slightly soapy woods with a citrus flash that lasts about four hours before settling into a clean musk-cedar skin scent.
