Savoy Steam Eau de Cologne

By the editors · 2 min readLemon and bergamot deliver a bright, slightly bitter citrus flash that feels almost steam-sharpened. Rosemary enters immediately, adding a camphoraceous green bite that slices the initial sweetness, while eucalyptus injects a cool, mentholated lift that keeps the accord airy rather than leafy. The heart stays locked in this aromatic-citrus tandem; no base appears, so the scent relaxes by softening the top oils on skin rather than introducing new material. After twenty minutes the lemon’s oiliness recedes, letting the herbal camphor dominate until a faint salty sweat-skin nuance surfaces, likely a rosemary-eucalyptus residue. Projection hovers within arm’s length for two hours, then collapses to a citrus-tinged skin whisper. Its brisk, barbershop character suits warm spring mornings and post-gym cooldowns, but the absence of anch woods or musks limits evening depth.
