By the editors · 2 min readPetitgrain opens with a sharp, green-citrus edge that quickly picks up nutmeg’s dry, peppery warmth, creating a breezy aromatic snap. Cedar slides underneath, its pencil-shaving woodiness pushing the opening toward a clean, slightly resinous heart that feels more sawdust than sap. As the cedar calms, vetiver and myrrh take over, the vetiver supplying cool, rooty smoke while myrrh folds in a muted, bittersweet incense that clings close to skin. Frankincense stays soft, more waxy pine than church candle, letting the musk dry the base into a quiet, grey-wood haze that lasts pleasantly but never shouts. Projection sits at arm’s length for the first three hours, then collapses into a cedar-musk skin that works best in cool weather or an air-conditioned office.
