By the editors · 2 min readGinger and anise define the opening — a warm, slightly medicinal spice combination with a herbal bite. The anise keeps things slightly sharp rather than sweet, while ginger adds a dry heat.
Sandalwood and myrrh anchor the base, building warmth beneath the spice. Patchouli contributes earthy depth that grounds the composition and prevents it from drifting too herbal. The myrrh and sandalwood create a slightly resinous quality that lingers into the drydown.
Overall this is a spiced, herbal masculine-leaning composition — more dry than sweet, with the ginger-anise combination giving it a distinct, slightly unusual character. The patchouli and myrrh base provides staying power. Best suited to cooler weather and evenings.
