By the editors · 2 min readGrapefruit opens tart and clean, with a small bitter edge that signals a more refined direction than typical sweet-citrus. The opening is brief.
Cedar takes the heart, dry and pencil-shaving in feel, framing the composition as woody-aromatic rather than floral or fruit-led. The transition from grapefruit to cedar is quick — there is no soft floral middle to bridge them, giving the wear a clean, minimalist line.
Tonka, ambroxan and iris in the base do the heavy lifting: ambroxan adds salty-musky lift, tonka almond-vanilla warmth, iris dusts the close with cool powder. Overall character is an iris-ambroxan-cedar composition with a powdery-musky drydown — refined, daytime, cool-weather, modest projection.
