Dry Timber

Dry Timber is a quiet, outdoorsy scent. It opens with a clear note of bergamot and a cool, aromatic kick of cardamom, which feels like crushing a green seed pod between your fingers. It keeps things dry and direct, and that is its charm. The heart is built on vetiver, which gives a dry, earthy, grassy-root feel, and a layer of woody notes that add texture like planed timber. It is calm and slightly austere, in a way that suits the name. Oakmoss and sandalwood form the base. The moss brings a damp forest floor and a faint bitterness, while sandalwood smooths everything into a soft, creamy wood. The finish is natural and clean, like sun-warmed bark. The extrait concentration gives it a long, steady life on skin, though it keeps a modest trail that stays polite in an office. It is best in spring and autumn, for work, walks and casual smart days. Three sprays gives a subtle halo. Bottom line: a calm, mossy wood that looks good with nearly everything.
