Fragrance notes
Top notes open with a vibrant citrus chorus, introducing a sparkling freshness that feels clean and modern. The heart unfolds with an herbal, slightly aromatic core that adds depth and sophistication, balancing brightness with a sense of cultivated calm. The base settles into amber-wood warmth, underscored by soft musk and subtle resinous undertones, leaving a polished, enduring trail. In practical terms, expect a scent that begins clean and zesty, grows more refined as the day progresses, and finishes with a quietly confident, woody-amber dry-down. Typical note families reported by enthusiasts include a citrus-led opening, a green-herbal midsection, and a warm, resinous base featuring amber and woods.
