By the editors · 2 min readLemon, thyme, and bergamot open with a bright herbal-citrus snap — thyme adding a savoury aromatic edge that pulls the citrus away from cologne territory and toward something more characterful.
The heart layers cinnamon, lavender, black pepper, and clove — a complex spice-aromatic pile where cinnamon's warm sweetness meets pepper's dry crackle and clove's medicinal punch. Lavender holds them together with a clean herbal thread. The whole middle reads as a sophisticated spicebox over a green-citrus floor.
The base on oakmoss, frankincense, and styrax adds a chypre-resinous depth: moss's damp-grey earthiness, frankincense smoke, styrax's leathery sweetness. Overall the character is a richly-spiced aromatic chypre, cool-weather and evening-leaning, refined rather than aggressive, suited to those who appreciate vintage structures rendered carefully.
