About

It kicks off with a zesty splash of bergamot and a brisk prickle of pink pepper and coriander. Soon after, a cool, green rose emerges, softened by a touch of osmanthus. The base settles into a forest floor of fir resin and earthy patchouli, with a hint of warm, contemplative frankincense peeking through. It’s an intriguing blend of fresh spice, gentle florals, and deep woody notes.
