By the editors · 2 min readChasseur de Béotie opens with grapefruit—a tart, dry citrus note that sets a clean, fresh tone. The grapefruit is crisp rather than sweet, suggesting a composition that leans toward the restrained.
Sandalwood and cedar form the heart, transitioning directly from citrus to warm, smooth wood. Sandalwood provides creaminess while cedar adds structural dryness. The floral phase is absent; the progression from citrus to wood is immediate.
Leather and musk close the base: the leather is cool and assertive, providing character and definition, while musk gives skin warmth. A minimal, dry, woody-leather fragrance for those who prefer restraint. Best in cool weather with any occasion.
