By the editors · 2 min readSaffron lands first, its leathery dryness snapping the bergamot’s citrus oil into something sharp and slightly medicinal. Jasmine and damask rose bloom quickly underneath, but the florals stay muted, more like dried petals than fresh ones, letting the spice keep the upper hand. Oakmoss creeps in early, laying a cool, earthy carpet that mutes any sweetness and pulls the composition toward a chypre spine. Cypriol adds a smoky, vetiver-like rootiness that braids with patchouli’s dark chocolate earth, so the dry-down feels like forest floor after rain: damp, mineral, faintly bitter. Projection stays polite, a close-wearing veil that lasts the workday yet never shouts. Cool fall days and grey wool scarves feel like its natural habitat.
