Undergrowth 2020 Edition
Mint snaps open with a cool chlorophyll bite that feels like crushed stems between fingers, immediately joined by wet grass that keeps the accord sun-laden rather than sugary.
The scent fingerprint

By the editors · 2 min readMint snaps open with a cool chlorophyll bite that feels like crushed stems between fingers, immediately joined by wet grass that keeps the accord sun-laden rather than sugary. The heart stays quiet, letting the green topnotes sink directly into earthy vetiver whose smoke-dark rootiness dries the foliage and adds mineral grit. Patchouli arrives late, folding cocoa-toned loam under the remaining mint so the finish reads as damp woodland floor rather than sweet-shop dusting. White musk sheathes the base in clean skin-close fuzz, stopping the composition from becoming outright soil and keeping sillage within personal space. Projection lingers at arm’s length for six hours, then settles to a cool vetiver haze perfect for rainy spring walks or shaded summer patios.
