By the editors · 2 min readBergamot and clary sage open bright and slightly bitter, the citrus peel edge sharpened by the herb’s green camphor. Cashmeran’s clean wood musk slides under the rose, turning the bloom matte and papery rather than lush, while the flower’s natural sweetness is dialed down to a neutral pink haze. Moss and tobacco arrive early, knitting the heart to the base: the leaf’s dry, hay-like tannin clamps onto the woodsy musk, and the oakmoss dusts everything with a cool, loamy grit. Ambergris adds a saline skin-warmth that keeps the tobacco from smelling honeyed; instead it feels like the inside of an old leather satchel left open by the sea. Projection stays within arm’s length for six hours, then collapses to a soft wood-tobacco skin tint that works best under a scarf in cool weather.
