Scent Journey
The opening is bright and fresh, led by citrus notes of bergamot, lemon, mandarin, and orange, intertwined with lavender and geranium. Helvetolide and hedione add a musky, floral lift. This phase lasts for about 30 minutes.
The heart reveals a fruity twist with blackberry, accompanied by rose. The aromatic and fresh spicy accords continue, while the base begins to emerge, adding depth.
The drydown is woody and amber-rich, featuring ambroxan, sandalwood, patchouli, and frankincense. Leather and cardamom add a warm spiciness, while juniper berry, cypriol, and cypress contribute a green, smoky facet. This phase lasts 4+ hours.
