By the editors · 2 min readCardamom crackles first, its cool green spice lifting basil’s sweet-herbal edge while bergamot flashes brief metallic citrus. Cedar arrives quickly, sharpening the spine with dry pencil shavings that slice through the aromatic top, clary sage adding a muted tobacco-like bitterness that keeps the wood from turning creamy. The dry-down is clean and pale: white musk dominates, sanding the cedar to a lint-soft blur, amber lending only a wash of neutral warmth, sandalwood present more as texture than identifiable wood. Projection stays polite, a skin-close masculine veil ideal for office air-conditioning or spring classroom corridors; heat amplifies the musk to laundry-sheet levels. Overall a tidy barbershop sketch drawn with minimal strokes, finished in under five hours.
