About

d'Ikar opens with a zesty, bitter citrus explosion of bergamot and orange, sharpened by an unusual carrot seed note. Quickly, it mellows into a powdery heart where iris and a distinctive mastic resin create a creamy, almost balsamic quality, woven with green tea and subtle spice. The dry down is a clean, woody embrace of vetiver and sandalwood, with a touch of amber adding a gentle warmth.
