The heart is where the composition gets interesting. Lavender and rosemary set the aromatic frame, then cumin slides in with its skin-warm, faintly sweaty character against nutmeg's dry brown spice. The pairing turns the structure intimate rather than cool.
Drydown lands on a rich oakmoss-amber-patchouli base with lavender ghosting through. Earthy and resinous, with the slightly grimy fougère depth that defines the style. Substantial, masculine in the traditional sense, and built for cool-weather wear when warmth wants something with grit.
