By the editors · 2 min readBergamot provides a crisp citrus opening that quickly gives way to patchouli's earthy depth in the heart. Iris contributes a powdery texture that softens the patchouli while benzoin and ambergris add balsamic warmth and subtle animalic complexity. Atlas and Virginia cedar create a dry woody foundation that becomes more pronounced in the dry-down alongside the iris's powdery character. The fragrance evolves significantly over three hours from bright citrus to earthy powdery wood with moderate projection that remains close to skin. Longevity extends through six to eight hours making it suitable for cooler weather daytime wear.
