By the editors · 2 min readBergamot snaps open with a clean, metallic citrus edge that quickly folds into a cool lavender heart. That lavender carries a barbershop soap freshness, while tonka bean injects a light almond-coumarin sweetness that softens the herb without turning powdery. Vetiver and patchouli arrive early in the dry-down, sharpening the base with dry grass and earthy wood that keeps the tonka from feeling syrupy. Amber and musk warm the skin, creating a fuzzy, close-to-body aura that smells like freshly showered skin wearing a laundered cotton shirt. Projection stays polite, extending maybe arm’s length for three hours before collapsing into a musky skin scent. Office-safe year-round, it shines brightest in spring air conditioning or post-gym errands when you want clean without aquatic clichés.
