Fragrance structure

How it develops

The opening is a cold snap: lavender and rosemary sharpened by petitgrain, herbal and nearly astringent before anything softens. Clary sage and geranium move in next, carrying a green, sappy bitterness that keeps the lavender from turning soapy, with neroli and a thread of jasmine rounding the corners. The base is where it earns its reputation, oakmoss and vetiver over cedar and sandalwood, dry and mossy, with amber warming the finish without ever sweetening it.
