By the editors · 2 min readGrapefruit and bergamot open with a sharp, crisp citrus character that is refreshingly tart and slightly bitter on first application. Petitgrain introduces a green, aromatic woody note that blends with the citrus, creating a more complex and herbal aromatic heart as the top notes fade. Incense and musk form the base, providing a dry, slightly smoky, and clean skin-scent foundation that contrasts with the bright opening. The fragrance evolves from a fresh citrus top to a drier, more resinous and musky dry-down over the first hour of wear. Sillage is light and intimate throughout, staying close to the skin with minimal projection beyond personal space. Longevity is moderate, lasting around four to five hours, making it suitable for casual wear in cool weather.
