Accords
Notes Pyramid
Scent Journey
The first 30 minutes are dominated by a sharp, invigorating blast of citrus. Lemon and citron provide a zesty brightness, while a cooling mint note creates an immediate sense of refreshment. The coriander adds a subtle, dry spiciness that prevents the opening from becoming too sweet or 'candy-like'.
As the fragrance transitions into the heart (1-2 hours), the green elements become more pronounced. The basil offers a peppery, herbal quality, while the carrot (often interpreted as carrot seed) provides a unique, earthy, and slightly powdery texture. A soft rose and apricot note emerge to round out the sharp edges with a faint floral sweetness.
Performance Dashboard
6-8 hours on average, with some users reporting 12+ hours on clothing.
Strong for the first 90 minutes, then settles to within arm's length.
Moderate to strong; it leaves a noticeable trail without being overpowering.
