By the editors · 2 min readThe freshness here is immediate and unapologetic—a bright blast of bergamot cooled by unmistakable mint that arrives crisp and nearly medicinal in its clarity. This isn't the syrupy spearmint of desserts but something sharper, almost bracing, like standing near a mountain stream in early spring. The bergamot keeps it from veering into toothpaste territory, adding a sunny citrus brightness that feels more athletic than aromatic.
As it settles, vetiver emerges to ground the composition, bringing an earthy, slightly grassy quality that tempers the mint's initial intensity. The overall effect remains linear and transparent—what you smell at the start is largely what you'll wear throughout the day, only softer and closer to the skin.
This is functional freshness for warm weather and active moments. It suits someone who wants clean simplicity without complication, a fragrance that announces nothing beyond readiness and ease. The sport designation feels accurate: straightforward, energetic, unadorned.
