By the editors · 2 min readViolet leaf introduces a crisp, green metallic edge that dominates the opening with its aqueous character. Sage and orange blossom emerge with an aromatic herbal quality that softens the initial sharpness. Tonka bean adds a sweet coumarin warmth that contrasts with the earthy base notes. Moss and vetiver provide a dry, rooty foundation while cedar adds a clean woody backbone. The scent transitions from green-aromatic to a mossy, slightly sweet woody dry-down. Sillage is moderate initially but becomes intimate after the first hour. Works well in cool weather for casual or work settings.
