By the editors · 2 min readCardamom crackles first, its cool, peppery edge slicing through brisk bergamot to create a fleeting aromatic frost that lasts barely five minutes. Incense and myrrh arrive together, smudging the opening with a dry, resinous haze that softens the spice into something faintly smoky rather than sweet. Cedar and suede settle underneath, the wood clean and blond, the leather a thin, suede-like skin that blunts incense’s rough edges while white musk keeps the base airy and laundered. Over two hours the scent folds into a pale, woody musk that sits close to fabric, projecting no farther than a handshake and vanishing by lunchtime. It’s office-safe cool-weather filler for days when nothing loud is allowed.
