By the editors · 2 min readGalbanum cracks open green and bitter, ivy and bergamot trailing behind it like a hedge after rain. The heart turns juicier than the opening promises — pear sweet without sugar, tuberose and orange blossom rounding the edges, heliotrope softening the floral seam.
Underneath, an old-fashioned chypre architecture: oakmoss, vetiver, patchouli and sandalwood, with fig leaf threading green back through the base. It dries down warm-earthy, the white flowers gone smoky against the moss. A composition that walks between genres without settling, classical bones in modern phrasing.
