At the top, artemisia and bergamot dance with cooling mint and peppermint, creating a luminous, energizing opening that feels fresh without heaviness. Cardamom adds a subtle spice that bridges the brightness into the heart.
At its core, cinnamon and orange blossom emerge, softened by caraway's herbal whisper. This middle act reveals the amber fougère foundation—warm, refined, and unmistakably masculine yet approachable. The heart lingers with quiet elegance, never demanding, always present.
The base settles into a creamy embrace of vanilla, tonka bean, and amber, grounded by sandalwood and cedarwood. This refined close presence projects with noticeable sillage, lasting 6–8 hours on skin—long enough for day wear, sophisticated enough for evening.
