Pot-Pourri

By the editors · 2 min readBergamot flashes a brief citrus spark before the scent dives straight into a dense herbal core where lavender, rosemary and thyme tangle into a dry, almost medicinal bouquet. The pungent green bite of crushed thyme is sharpened by clove’s hot, camphorated edge, while rosemary keeps the accord bristling and airy. Cedar arrives early, lending splintered wood dust that sops up the aromatics and prevents them from turning oily. Patchouli surfaces later, adding a cool, loamy undertone that darkens the herbs without overt sweetness, so the fragrance stays stern and somewhat ecclesiastical. Wear it projects at polite arm’s length for four to five hours, then settles into a clean, laundry-like skin whisper. Cool autumn days, smart-casual offices, and any setting that welcomes an old-apothecary aura fit best.
