About

Woody Sage opens with a sharp, zesty grapefruit that quickly mingles with the green, slightly sweet earthiness of fig. The heart reveals aromatic sage, reminiscent of a herb garden by the sea, though for some, this herbal note veers into a soapy, almost chemical territory. It’s light, airy, and attempts to capture a breezy, saltwater essence, but the clean, fresh elements sometimes translate as synthetic rather than natural.
