By the editors · 2 min readGrapefruit bursts forth with a sharp, zesty citrus tang that is both refreshing and slightly bitter. Pineapple adds a juicy tropical sweetness, its bright fruity character complementing the citrus opening. Nutmeg provides a warm-spicy undertone, a subtle dry heat that contrasts with the cool fruitiness. Vetiver grounds the composition with its dry, earthy and slightly green woody character in the base. The scent remains fairly linear, a straightforward fruity-citrus accord with a spicy-woody anchor. Projection is strong initially but fades to a moderate trail, ideal for summer days and casual outdoor activities in hot weather.
