By the editors · 2 min readMint, sage, and lemon open with sharp, herbal clarity — the mint providing cool freshness, sage adding a dry, culinary earthiness, and lemon keeping the opening bright. It's a clean, unambiguous aromatic beginning that announces a fougère rather than a fresh-clean.
Rosemary, vetiver, and galbanum form an unusually structured heart for a budget masculine. Rosemary contributes another herbal register; vetiver provides smoky, earthy depth; galbanum adds a sharp green character. Together they create something more complex than the price point would suggest.
Oakmoss, jasmine, patchouli, and musk anchor the base in a classically composed fougère foundation. The oakmoss gives mossy earthiness characteristic of the era; jasmine softens it; patchouli and musk provide longevity. A well-crafted old-school aromatic fougère from 1993 that competes comfortably against fragrances costing many times more.
