About

Dive into a cool, salty marine opening, quickly spiced up with a kick of pink pepper. The heart unfurls with green, woody vetiver and sweet, luscious fig, reminiscent of a Mediterranean orchard by the sea. The base settles into a smooth, modern woody drydown of sandalwood and akigalawood, lending an earthy depth to the aquatic freshness. It's a complex, potent blend that evolves significantly on the skin.
