Scent Profile — What You'll Experience
Heart Notes
Cedarwood · Jasmine · Pine
Base Notes
Musk · Patchouli · Vetiver
The opening arrives with a vibrant green apple note that sparkles with freshness, establishing an invigorating first impression. This crisp, modern opener immediately signals sophistication, inviting you into a fragrance built in the same style as the iconic original—but entirely your own.
In the heart, pine tree and cedarwood create a woody embrace, softened by delicate jasmine that adds romantic depth without overwhelming the senses. These middle notes reveal the fragrance's true character: balanced, elegant, and effortlessly wearable from morning meetings to evening occasions.
The base settles into a warm, creamy finish with white musk, vetiver, and patchouli working in harmony. A gentle personal sillage carries this composition for 6–8 hours, creating an intimate cloud that draws people closer rather than announcing your presence. The result is a fragrance that feels both timeless and distinctly contemporary.
