By the editors · 2 min readNeroli and bergamot open in a classic mid-century cologne flourish, bright and slightly soapy, with the neroli's honeyed-orange tone leading. The entry feels distinctly aldehydic in the manner of the era, with a sparkling, faintly waxy lift.
The heart unfolds into a dense floral bouquet: jasmine, lily of the valley, iris, violet, clary sage, and rose. Iris and violet bring cool powdered-cosmetic quality, while clary sage adds a green herbal twist that sets the bouquet apart from generic floral aldehydics. Rose threads through warmly.
The base settles into sandalwood, oakmoss, vetiver, amber, and musk, building a chypre foundation that grounds the powder and florals in dry earthy woods. Polished, formal, and built for cooler weather.
