The strong citrus and green accords make it a great casual and sport scent, yet its surprising longevity and elegance elevate it beyond mere freshness. It's a bit too bold for formal events and while suitable for office, it might be a bit much for some colleagues.

About

Totem Yellow kicks off with a zesty explosion of grapefruit and lemon, brilliantly bright and immediate. As the initial citrus rush settles, a sophisticated heart of green tea and delicate rose emerges, perfectly balanced by a hint of juicy peach. The deeper dry down reveals a subtle leather and woody musk, adding a refined, almost masculine character that grounds the vibrant top notes without ever overpowering them. It's fresh, clean, and unexpectedly complex.
