By the editors · 2 min readOrange and bergamot open with a bright, zesty citrus burst that quickly settles into a crisp aromatic freshness. Star anise introduces a distinct licorice-like warmth while eucalyptus adds a cool, camphoraceous edge that cuts through the initial sweetness. Guaiac wood provides a smoky, slightly resinous backbone in the dry-down, complemented by earthy patchouli and a clean musky base. The composition evolves from a lively citrus-aromatic opening to a more grounded, woody-herbal character over several hours. Projection remains moderate, settling close to the skin with a longevity of four to six hours. This scent suits casual daytime wear in spring or fall, particularly in cool to warm weather conditions.
