By the editors · 2 min readYuzu and double-dosed lime crack open with a sharp, sherbet-like fizz that instantly sets a chilled citrus axis. Sage and basil ride that opening, adding a cool green-herbal snap that keeps the fruit from turning sweet. In the heart, ginger reheats the accord, its radiant heat threading through the returning sage while vetiver and cardamom give a dry, peppery grit that roughs up the citrus edges. The dry-down folds into a clean sandalwood and cedar platform; oakmoss provides a quiet, slightly bitter lift and guaiac wood supplies a pale, pencil-shaving smoke that lingers close to skin. Projection stays polite, a citrus-aromatic veil that works best at office volume yet still refreshes after five hours on fabric.
