About

Wellington Cologne bursts open with an aromatic, fresh spicy kick, reminiscent of a crisp, herbal breeze. The heart unfurls with the refined green floral of neroli, balanced by earthy rosemary and the clean, subtle hum of musk, preventing any sweetness. It dries down to a woody, musky base, carrying a hint of powdery classicism that anchors its invigorating opening, creating a scent profile that's both naturalistic and ruggedly elegant.
