About

Opens with a lively burst of citrus and bergamot, given an earthy kick by coriander and a clean, almost soapy musk. The heart brings a juicy touch of pineapple intertwined with the classic, slightly green depth of oakmoss. It settles into a smooth, comforting woody base, carrying that fresh, aromatic signature throughout.
