By the editors · 2 min readLemon and bergamot open with a sharp citrus burst, quickly grounded by cardamom's warm-spicy hum and galbanum's resinous green edge. Jasmine and lily of the valley emerge as a clean white-floral heart, softening the aromatic top without losing its crisp energy. Leather anchors the dry-down with a supple texture, supported by vetiver's earthy dryness and patchouli's faintly musky depth. Musk provides a subtle skin-hugging base that pulls the composition inward after the first hour. Projection starts moderate but settles to an intimate radius within three hours, suitable for cool evenings and formal settings.
