By the editors · 2 min readGrapefruit and bergamot deliver a bright citrus burst with sharp freshness, immediately met by cardamom and nutmeg's warm-spicy intensity. Ambergris provides a saline-animalic base that blends with patchouli's earthy-mossy depth, creating a contrast between fresh top and earthy dry-down. The scent evolves from citrus-spicy to earthy-resinous, projecting strongly for the first hour before receding to moderate sillage. Longevity extends four to six hours, making it suitable for spring and fall casual occasions in warm to cool weather.
