By the editors · 2 min readZeste de Gingembre opens with a bright, sharp lime that reads more tart than sweet, immediately followed by ginger that is green and rhizome-fresh rather than warm or candied. The combination is bracing and clean, with a slight bite.
As it settles, pink pepper and cardamom emerge from the base, adding dry spice that sharpens rather than softens the overall accord. There is no wood, no musk, and no sweetness anchoring the base — the composition stays vertical and transparent throughout. This is a spare, citrus-spice construction that wears relatively briefly and projects at a discreet level, suited to warm weather and daytime wear.
