About

Fougère Platine opens with an invigorating, almost metallic blast of fresh lavender, clary sage, and basil, underscored by a bright bergamot lift. This verdant accord quickly deepens into a sophisticated heart of resinous labdanum and frankincense, warmed by a subtle honeyed sweetness and a distinct herbal artemisia. The dry-down reveals a refined blend of dry, woody cedar and a hint of green, earthy tobacco, lending a masculine depth without weighing it down. It's a journey from herbaceous freshness to a warm, woody embrace.
