By the editors · 2 min readGrapefruit opens with a dry, slightly bitter citrus note — less juicy than most citrus openings, with a tart edge that suits what follows. Cacao and cocoa emerge in the base as a rich, roasted dryness rather than sweet chocolate, sitting beside vetiver's smoky, root-like depth.
Sea salt and musk introduce an unexpected saline quality that lifts the heavier notes, preventing the cocoa-vetiver pairing from becoming too dense. Cinnamon adds a faint spiced warmth underneath without taking over.
The overall character is a dry, salty-gourmand construction — unusual for its restraint. It wears as much as an aromatic as a gourmand, suited to cool weather and casual or informal occasions.
