By the editors · 2 min readPetitgrain dominates from the first spray, its green-bitter orange-leaf edge slicing through humid air like a citrus peel flick. The heart doubles the same material, letting its woody twig facet braid with cool violet petals that mute the opening's sharpness without adding sugar. Patchouli anchors the base, drying into a matte, cocoa-brown earth that absorbs the earlier greens and leaves a quiet, slightly mineral skin scent. Transition is swift: bright leaf → cool floral dust → dry earth in under three hours, wearing close and polite. Office-safe in warm weather, yet the violet gives enough detour to keep it from smelling like a cologne wipe. Projection stays within handshake distance; reapply after lunch if you want the green flash back.
