Fragrance structure
How it develops
Mandarin, bergamot, lemon, lavender and nutmeg open with an aromatic citrus flash that quickly develops a metallic-green edge. Violet leaf then takes center stage, producing Fahrenheit's recognizable cool gasoline impression alongside cedar, sandalwood and a floral undertone. The drydown turns darker and more tactile: leather, vetiver, patchouli, musk, amber and tonka create a warm, smoky-woody finish. The progression is dramatic but coherent, moving from bright air to polished roughness.
