By the editors · 2 min readMint and basil provide a crisp herbal opening with lemon and bergamot adding citrus brightness. Anise and thyme introduce a licorice-like aromatic quality that transitions into the heart. Cinnamon warms the floral core of jasmine and rose, while patchouli adds earthy depth. The base is a classic chypre structure with oakmoss, leather, and labdanum creating a dry, mossy-ambery finish. This evolves from fresh-aromatic to warm-woody over wear, with significant complexity. Strong projection and longevity suit formal occasions in cool seasons.
