By the editors · 2 min readSage and clary sage create an aromatic, slightly medicinal green opening with bergamot's citrus lift. The herbal character remains prominent as it transitions, feeling both fresh and earthy. Sandalwood provides a creamy, smooth woody base that softens the herbal sharpness. Oakmoss adds a classic, damp forest floor earthiness, while amber contributes a subtle resinous warmth. Patchouli enhances the earthy, slightly rooty dry-down character. It projects moderately and lasts well, suited for outdoor or casual wear in cooler weather.
