About

Opens with an aromatic blend of fresh lavender and herbaceous sage, quickly deepening into a surprising heart of earthy truffle and rich oud paired with floral geranium. The dry down is a warm, enveloping embrace of creamy vanilla, grounded by robust oak and earthy vetiver, creating a refined sweet-woody aroma.
