By the editors · 2 min readBasil and bergamot create a sharp, green-citrus opening that is brisk and slightly medicinal, with basil’s herbal pungency leading the accord. A complex heart of lavender, rosemary, thyme, and black pepper builds a aromatic, fresh-spicy character that feels both classic and rugged, with each herb contributing earthy, camphorous, and peppery nuances. Moss adds a damp, forest-like quality that enhances the green, earthy texture, while the base of sandalwood, cedar, and patchouli provides a dry, woody foundation that is subtly softened by clean musk. The scent remains consistently aromatic and green throughout its wear, with moderate projection that stays close to the body after the first hour. Longevity is good, making it suitable for daytime outdoor or casual wear in spring and fall.
