About

Opens with a vibrant, zesty burst of basil, lime, and grapefruit, underscored by a subtle tingle of black pepper and nutmeg. This fresh, green introduction mellows into an aromatic heart of sage and delicate florals like jasmine, before settling into a warm, mossy base where earthy patchouli, clean musk, and deep cedar create a sophisticated, lasting impression.
