About

Venetian Blue opens with a bright, crisp burst of green apple and zesty lemon, sweetened by bergamot. This energetic start quickly settles into a heart of fresh, peppery birch, softened by earthy patchouli. The drydown reveals a sophisticated base of oakmoss, a hint of clean musk, and the salty, oceanic whisper of ambergris, creating a refined and invigorating aroma.
