About

Desert Star opens with a sharp, zesty burst of bergamot before settling into a rich, complex heart of earthy vetiver, creamy cashmere wood, and a lively kick of pink pepper. The dry down is a deeply satisfying blend of clean musk, robust cedar, and warm amber, leaving a luxurious and enduring trail.
