By the editors · 2 min readBergamot opens crisp, the brightness immediately tempered by a herbaceous undertow that pulls the composition toward green.
The heart layers neroli and peony — a floral chord that reads more aromatic than narcotic, the neroli's bitter-orange lift keeping things upright, the peony adding a soft pink shoulder. Pink pepper threads through.
Vetiver and cedar settle the base into a cool, earthy floor, patchouli adding a discreet root. Overall character: an aromatic-floral with a clean, breezy character. The herbaceous quality holds across all stages. The spice register reads cool rather than warming. Wear is steady rather than dynamic — closer to atmosphere than narrative.
