By the editors · 2 min readTarragon and thyme lend a green herbal sharpness to the opening, complemented by grapefruit and bergamot's fresh citrus zest. Rose emerges in the heart, providing a floral richness that balances the aromatic greenery. Oakmoss and vetiver create a dry, earthy base with tobacco adding a leathery nuance and patchouli a subtle earthiness. Musk softens the dry-down into a skin-close and slightly powdery trail. The fragrance evolves from bright and herbal to a mossy, woody finish with moderate complexity. Projection is intimate with good longevity, ideal for spring and fall casual or formal occasions.
