By the editors · 2 min readViolet leaf and basil open together with a sharp, green-herbaceous quality before bergamot and star anise add a slightly sweet, licorice-tinged freshness. The opening is cool and slightly austere.
Pink pepper and nutmeg form a brief spiced heart that transitions quickly toward the vetiver and patchouli base. Vetiver here reads earthy and smoky, while patchouli adds a darker, slightly resinous depth. The overall trajectory is from herbal-fresh at the top to earthy-woody at the base.
The character is aromatic and green with a dry, woody finish. There is no sweetness to soften it — the composition stays clean and linear, well-suited to casual wear in warm months or as a confident daytime choice.
