Basics
Description
About
This crisp aromatic composition balances an energetic citrus brightness with a deeply grounded masculine warmth. Soothing lavender introduces an airy freshness, while an earthy, sustainably sourced Haitian vetiver anchors the center, gradually deepening into a smooth, resinous base of amber notes that feels thoroughly clean yet distinctively rugged.
A classic aromatic-woody fragrance opening with bright bergamot and moving into an herbal lavender heart. Cedar, sandalwood and vetiver create a dry, elegant woodiness, while ambergris adds warmth to the base. The overall character balances crisp citrus and lavender with a measured, substantial woody finish.
