By the editors · 2 min readGrapefruit opens with a sharp citrus burst that quickly settles into a green-rind bitterness. Pink pepper introduces a soft-spicy warmth that wraps around the grapefruit's acidity. Vetiver grounds the composition with its dry, earthy character, while patchouli adds a subtle resinous depth in the background. The scent remains linear after the initial citrus fade, maintaining a clean aromatic greenness throughout its wear. Projection starts moderately but recedes to a skin-close presence within two hours, suitable for casual daytime use in spring or summer. Its dry woody base provides a lasting subtle trail that works well in warm weather.
