By the editors · 2 min readGin Fizz is named after the cocktail but smells nothing like one — it's a reference to atmosphere rather than ingredient. Bergamot opens with a clean, bright citrus note before galbanum steps in with cold, green precision that sharpens the heart considerably. Iris, jasmine, and rose form a floral accord that is distinctly chypre in register: more mineral and architectural than romantic.
Vetiver and benzoin anchor the base with a dry, resinous quality while lily adds a white-floral note that softens the edges without undermining the composition's underlying seriousness. The oakmoss thread running through the general notes gives this a vintage quality that still reads entirely current.
