By the editors · 2 min readUnder the Lemon Tree opens with a burst of petitgrain and lime—green, slightly bitter, and startlingly fresh. The cardamom adds a resinous warmth that keeps the citrus from turning sour or thin. This is not lemonade; it's the shade beneath actual branches, where leaves crush underfoot and the air smells simultaneously cool and sun-warmed.
As it settles, white musk and cedar provide a soft, clean foundation that lets the green notes linger without fading into simple cologne territory. The cedar is barely woody—more like pale, dry warmth than forest floor.
This works for anyone seeking straightforward freshness without sweetness or florals. It's unisex, unpretentious, and wears close to the skin. Office-safe, summer-friendly, and gone by evening.
