Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

mat; very male opens with bergamot and a water accord, with anise adding a cool, sweet, herbal edge. The heart combines bamboo, lotus and woody notes, giving a green, airy and watery feel. The base of licorice, patchouli and Virginia cedarwood brings a dry, earthy finish with a hint of sweetness. It is an aquatic woody scent with a quirky licorice thread, and it should suit men who want fresh but not generic.
