By the editors · 2 min readLavender dominates the opening, cool and camphoraceous against lemon's bright acidity and mint's green snap. The heart introduces nutmeg's dry warmth alongside sage's fuzzy herbal bitterness, turning the composition darker and more resinous while maintaining aromatic lift. Base woods emerge slowly: cedar provides pencil-sharp structure, sandalwood adds creamy volume, and patchouli contributes earthy depth, all bound by tonka's soft almond sweetness and labdanum's leathery amber glow. Incense smoke weaves through the dry-down, drying the sweetness and extending the herbal theme into a muted, church-like haze that lingers close to skin. Projection stays moderate, creating a refined aromatic cloud perfect for office wear through fall and winter. Complexity is high despite traditional structure, with each transition clearly articulated rather than blurred.
