About

Cairo Summer opens with a spirited citrus burst of bergamot, quickly joined by the distinctive, somewhat soapy clean edge of neroli. As the initial brightness settles, a heart of jasmine, nutmeg, cardamom, and pink pepper emerges, adding a gentle spicy floral warmth. The base anchors this fresh composition with earthy patchouli, guaiac wood, cedar, and amber, providing a woody, slightly musky depth that gives it surprising longevity for a fresh-leaning scent. It’s predominantly a crisp, green citrus and white floral experience.
