By the editors · 2 min readPetitgrain opens with a sharp, green citrus character that quickly melds with cardamom's warm-spicy aromatic lift. The initial brightness settles within minutes, revealing a dry, woody core built from Virginia cedar's pencil-shaving texture. Amber provides a subtle resinous warmth that softens the composition's edges, while patchouli contributes an earthy, slightly damp foundation. This scent remains relatively linear after the top notes fade, holding a consistent aromatic-woody profile. Projection starts moderately but recedes to a skin-scent intimacy within two hours of application. Best suited for casual daytime wear in cool or temperate weather, it offers a straightforward, grounded character.
