By the editors · 2 min readLavender opens crisp and slightly camphoraceous, immediately setting a cool aromatic tone that feels barbershop-clean rather than floral. Tarragon slips in within minutes, adding a faint anise-tinged greenness that softens the lavender’s edges while star anise amplifies the licorice nuance, turning the heart into a dry, herbal swirl with a subtle sweet-spicy hum. Oakmoss dominates the dry-down, casting a shadowy, bittersweet forest-floor facet that grips the skin and keeps the earlier herbs from ever feeling airy or light. Amber arrives late, not as warm balsam but as a dry, tobacco-hued resin that lengthens the mossy bitterness and lends staying power without sweetness. Projection stays polite for the first hour, then collaps to a personal aura anchored by the oakmoss; it reads as serious, faintly medicinal, and works best in cool weather, office to dinner.
