About

It hits you first with an unexpected kick of pink pepper and cool eucalyptus, brightened by bergamot, before quickly plunging into its namesake- earth. A damp, mineralic petrichor accord dominates, mingling with a deep, almost rooty patchouli that evokes the scent of freshly turned soil after rain. The base grounds this unusual earthiness with forest floor greens from oakmoss and the dry warmth of amberwood, leaving a lasting impression of nature's raw, unadulterated essence.
