Sergio Tacchini The Essence is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2022. The Essence opens with Bergamot, Juniper, Artemisia, and Wormwood, settles into a heart of Iris, Myrrh, and Incense, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, Guaiac Wood, and Vanilla. Sergio Tacchini's The Essence carries an Acquired verdict, a musk-led wear.

The Essence is a herbal, woody scent with a sweet vanilla and sandalwood base. Artemisia, wormwood and juniper make the opening dry and green. It has more character than most sport-brand Edts.

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

The Essence opens with bergamot, artemisia, wormwood and juniper, a dry, bitter and green start with a citrus lift. The heart brings myrrh, iris and incense, which adds a resinous, powdery and slightly smoky depth. The base is vanilla, sandalwood, guaiac wood and musk, so the scent finishes warm, smooth and woody. This Edt is a masculine aromatic woody scent with a calm, grounded feel and a sweet touch at the end.
