By the editors · 2 min readLemon and bergamot launch bright, tart citric sparkle that feels freshly squeezed rather than candied. Sandalwood arrives quickly, its creamy wood softening the citrus while peach skin adds a faint fuzz of fuzzy sweetness that keeps the heart approachable. Oakmoss turns the base quietly earthy, amber supplies powdery warmth, and clean white musk locks the scent to skin with minimal trail. The overall effect is a lightweight, shampoo-clean citrus-woods accord that stays polite for four hours before collapsing into a skin-scent wisp. Projection remains arm-length at best, making it a safe post-playground splash for hot school mornings or weekend errands when you want freshness without statement.
