By the editors · 2 min readPetitgrain, lavender, neroli, galbanum, and bergamot create a complex, multi-faceted opening — the galbanum adding a sharp green note, lavender providing aromatic structure, and neroli alongside bergamot delivering bright, bittersweet citrus. The top is dense with information.
Jasmine, frankincense, labdanum, ylang-ylang, orange blossom, and styrax form a rich, balsamic-floral heart with significant depth. Sea salt and oakmoss in the base introduce a distinctive marine-mossy quality alongside labdanum's resinous warmth and cedar's dry woodiness. The result is an unusual composition — a green-citrus chypre opening that moves through a full oriental-balsamic heart into a marine-mossy base. Ambitious and multidimensional.
