By the editors · 2 min readApple and bergamot create a crisp fruity-citrus opening with thyme adding an aromatic green edge. Orange blossom introduces a narcotic white floral quality that transitions into the heart. Jasmine amplifies the floral character while cedar provides dry woody support beneath the blossoms. Leather and amber form a warm, slightly animalic base that contrasts with the brighter top notes. Ambergris adds a marine salinity that bridges the floral and leather accords. Development shows moderate evolution from fresh to warm, with projection starting strong then settling closer to skin. Longevity extends 6-8 hours, suitable for fall evenings and formal occasions.
