Projection

Sillage

Moderate to close — described as having 'pretty close projection' with community sillage votes around 6.2/10; one wearer notes 'barely any sillage'

A perfectly balanced blend of woody and spicy notes — the sandalwood and cork woods are gently supported by cardamom and anise, creating a harmonious scent where no single note overpowers the others. It evokes the feeling of stepping into a wooden cabin... an ideal choice for the office or for staying cozy in the fall and winter seasons.
I've tried many woody, incense-based fragrances, but this one is truly unique. The Palo Santo is prominent without being overpowering, and the dry down is beautifully warm and earthy. It's far more complex and sophisticated than other scents in this genre.
Spices, incense, soft woods and lots of cork. It smells cozy and has a soothing effect on me.
An exciting combination of bright incense, a bit of freshness, and woody-spicy notes.

It evokes the feeling of stepping into a wooden cabin, with a subtle whiff of firewood stacked nearby.

Like freshly cracked, finely milled pepper, woody in an airy way - is it the cork? But what's the point with such poor performance.
Medium longevity, barely any sillage.
Not the most persistent and sillage-spreading option - just 4-5 hours - and a pretty close projection.
But what's the point with such poor performance.
