By the editors · 2 min readLavender, rosemary, and basil create an aromatic herbal opening underscored by sharp citrus from lime and bergamot. Moss and iris emerge quickly, imparting a earthy, powdery green character that defines the heart. Jasmine and rose add a subtle floral layer, while clove and nutmeg contribute a soft-spicy warmth. Leather and patchouli anchor the base with a dry, slightly rugged texture, complemented by cedar's woodiness and amber's mild resinous glow. Sillage is moderate and intimate, lasting about five hours with a linear evolution from fresh-aromatic to mossy-leather. Best suited for casual daytime wear in spring or fall.
