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

Opens with an exhilarating burst of zesty citron and grapefruit, sharpened by a distinct gin accord, before settling into a sophisticated heart of aromatic matcha tea and delicate geranium. The dry down is a comforting embrace of earthy vetiver and patchouli, balanced by warm amber and creamy sandalwood, leaving a clean, masculine trail.
