About

This opens with a zesty burst of bergamot and grapefruit, underpinned by fresh green notes, like stepping into a dew-kissed citrus grove. The heart introduces a surprising peppery kick alongside a clean aquatic accord and soft jasmine. The dry-down settles into a comforting base of earthy patchouli, warm cedar, and clean musk, though a unique, almost coppery scent can linger, giving it a distinctive edge.
