By the editors · 2 min readAmber and cedar open warm and dry together — an unusual top placement that skips the typical bright opening and lands straight in resinous territory. Cedar adds a pencil-shaving edge that keeps the amber from going syrupy.
Sandalwood and lily share the heart, the wood creamy and rounded, the lily adding a faint cool floral that feels almost out of place against the dryness around it. Amber repeats here, layered through the composition.
Moss, more sandalwood, amber, and iris settle into the base — earthy, root-cool, with the iris adding a powdery refinement underneath the wood. The overall character is dry, amber-resinous, slightly meditative, with a green-mossy floor. Holds steady on skin without much development.
