By the editors · 2 min readLavender opens Imperial Green with a cool, slightly camphoraceous bite that feels like snapping a fresh sprig between your fingers. Orange blossom slips in quickly, softening the edges with a clean, soap-lifted sweetness that keeps the lavender from turning medicinal. Vetiver and patchouli arrive together in the base, the vetiver supplying a dry, grassy smoke while patchouli adds a muted cocoa-earth thickness that anchors the white petals above. Over two hours the orange blossom recedes, letting the vetiver dominate, its rooty bitterness warmed by Ambroxan’s mineral amber glow that clings close to skin. Projection stays polite, radiating no farther than forearm distance; office-safe yet still recognizably green. Best worn spring-through-fall, especially on cool mornings when its crisp aromatic spine can cut through light jackets.
