About

North Star opens with an effervescent burst of pomelo and sweet raspberry, giving it an uplifting, fruity zing. This bright intro smoothly transitions into a sophisticated heart of aromatic juniper, delicate rose, and powdery violet. The scent settles into a grounding base of earthy vetiver and a hint of smooth, refined leather, delivering a clean and elegant finish that feels both modern and effortlessly masculine.
