By the editors · 2 min readOrange and grapefruit deliver a sharp, zesty citrus burst that feels invigorating and slightly tart upon application. This bright opening quickly recedes as earthy and woody base notes rise to the forefront, creating a dry and textured transition. Vetiver and patchouli form the core accord, contributing a rooty, slightly dusty character that grounds the fragrance with an organic depth. Benzoin adds a faint balsamic sweetness in the background, softening the roughness of the woods without becoming prominent. Cedar provides a clean, pencil-shaving-like woodiness that enhances the dry and aromatic quality of the composition. The scent evolves linearly after the top fades, maintaining a consistent earthy-woody profile for several hours. Projection is moderate initially but becomes skin-clinging within two hours, with longevity extending to six or seven hours.
