Sharp citrus and cold mint, tempered by a grounding woody core
It hits with an immediate, bracing spray of lemon, bergamot, and herbaceous tarragon, capturing the sharp clarity of a 90s classic. The mint and rosemary provide an icy, medicinal lift that holds steady against midday humidity. As the citrus fades, a structural shift occurs: Brazilian rosewood and sandalwood emerge, grounding the high-pitched top notes in a dense, masculine woodsiness. Touches of oakmoss and patchouli add a dry, earthy texture that clings to the skin for hours without turning cloying. It is a calculated, clean profile that favors precision over projection.
