By the editors · 2 min readPetitgrain snaps open with a bitter-green flash, its woody-citrus edge sharpened by galbanum’s resinous bite and bergamot’s cool zest. Jasmine and orange blossom arrive together, folding the top’s dryness into honey-bright petals that still carry a trace of crushed leaf. Sandalwood steadies the heart, creaming the white florals while vetiver threads smoke through the wood, keeping the composition angular rather than plush. Musk sheathes the base in clean skin, letting the earlier greens linger as a quiet stem-water nuance that refuses full sweetness. Projection stays close, a translucent veil perfect for warm days when you want citrus without sugar. Wear it to the office through late spring and summer; longevity lands around five hours before the musk-wood whisper fades.
