By the editors · 2 min readRosemary opens with a cool, resinous bite that strips the citrus oils of their usual sweetness, leaving lemon and bergamot sharp and almost metallic. The heart is dry cedar stacked on guaiac’s pencil-shaving smoke, a brittle woody accord that keeps the amber from turning creamy. As skin warms, amber spreads a thin, honeyed glaze while musk shears off any lingering citrus sparkle, locking the scent into a clean, slightly medicinal-herbal skin. Projection stays within handshake range for five hours, then collapses to a woody skin musk. Cool spring mornings and office air conditioning let the aromatic top breathe before the base clamps down.
