L'Eau de Sport Balle de Match

By the editors · 2 min readGrapefruit slashes open with a bitter-citrus snap that barely sweetens before twin peppers crackle across the top. Black pepper adds a dry, dark heat that pushes the fruit forward while pink pepper sprinkles rosy lift, keeping the opening brisk rather than bracing. Oakmoss slides in early, wrapping the spices in cool, loamy green that muffles projection and tilts the scent mossy-forest rather than gym-shower. Vetiver sharpens that earth with rooty smoke, patchouli thickens it into a muted camphoraceous hum, and clean white musk dusts the base so the dry-down stays polite on skin. It evolves little after twenty minutes, remaining a close, leafy-citrus skin whisper that survives office air-conditioning for about five hours. Quietly masculine-leaning, best for spring or cool summer workdays when you want discreet freshness without aquatic clichés.
