About

Opens with a rich, dark burst of myrtle and cedar, quickly settling into the star of the show: a deep, woody patchouli that's both earthy and subtly chocolatey. Hints of myrrh add a warm, balsamic depth, while creamy sandalwood and a whisper of vanilla in the dry down soften the edges, creating a comforting, mossy embrace that lingers beautifully.
