By the editors · 2 min readBlack pepper and grapefruit open together with a crisp, slightly sharp character, bergamot rounding the edges into something clean and citrus-forward. The opening is brief but pleasant, setting up a traditional barbershop transition.
Lavender takes over the heart, bolstered by tonka bean — a pairing that reads warm and herbal simultaneously, with just enough sweetness to soften the aromatic edge. The base arrives through vetiver's dry smokiness, patchouli's earthiness, and leather's firm structure.
The overall profile is classical masculine fougère territory — aromatic, leather-backed, unhurried. Vetiver and patchouli keep things grounded without turning heavy, making this work well in cooler, professional contexts.
