By the editors · 2 min readThe first breath of pink pepper is clean and bright, almost translucent—less spice than a crisp, airy lift that clears the way for what follows. As it settles, fig and vetiver form the core: the fig is milky and green, more sap than fruit, while the vetiver adds a grassy, slightly bitter backbone that keeps the composition from drifting into sweetness.
The base gathers warmth through sandalwood and patchouli, both handled with restraint. The sandalwood lends a creamy woodiness without heaviness, and the patchouli stays earthy rather than musty. The overall effect is balanced and composed, neither loud nor retiring.
This is for someone who wants presence without drama—a vetiver scent that's been given a modern, almost minimalist frame. It wears well in professional contexts but doesn't feel corporate. Straightforward, quietly confident, and easier to wear than its "intense" designation might suggest.
