Scent Journey

1
Opening 0-30 min

The first 0-30 minutes are dominated by a bright and juicy burst of kiwi, which is an unusual and immediately noticeable top note. This is quickly complemented by the sharp, zesty freshness of bergamot, creating an opening that is both fruity and citrusy. The initial impression is energetic, vibrant, and distinctly modern, with a slightly tart and green quality that is quite refreshing.

2
Heart 1-2 hrs

As the fragrance settles into its heart, the aromatic character begins to emerge. The herbal, slightly piney scent of rosemary takes center stage, providing a clean and sophisticated counterpoint to the fruity opening. The geranium adds a subtle, rosy-floral nuance that softens the composition and gives it a touch of elegance. This phase is where the 'fresh spicy' and 'aromatic' accords become most apparent, creating a well-blended and pleasant heart.

3
Drydown 4+ hrs

In the drydown, which occurs after 4 or more hours, the fragrance transitions to a warmer, more grounded base. The woody, slightly dry scent of cedar provides a solid and masculine foundation. This is complemented by moss, which adds an earthy, green, and slightly damp quality that anchors the entire composition. The final impression is one of a clean, sophisticated, and natural scent that lingers close to the skin.

Performance Dashboard

โฑ๏ธ Longevity 3.0/5

4-6 hours, which is moderate and typical for an eau de toilette. It is not a beast-mode fragrance but will last through a workday.

๐Ÿ“ข Projection 3.0/5

Soft to moderate. It projects for the first couple of hours before settling closer to the skin, creating an intimate scent bubble.

๐Ÿ’จ Sillage 3.0/5

Moderate. The scent leaves a noticeable but not overpowering trail, making it suitable for close-quarters environments.
