By the editors · 2 min readCardamom and fresh grass open together — cool, slightly sharp, and green. The contrast between the dry spice and the cut-grass note creates an immediate sense of outdoor air, grounded rather than aquatic.
Jasmine and violet arrive in the heart, the jasmine restrained enough not to read as overtly floral, while violet lends a faint powdery quality. Sandalwood and cedar provide warmth and quiet weight beneath, with vetiver adding an earthy, slightly smoky thread. Amber rounds the base into something honeyed and cohesive without becoming sweet.
The overall effect is aromatic and woody with a spiced green opening that gradually softens into a warm, resinous finish. Composed and unhurried in its evolution.
