Scent Profile — What You'll Experience
Top Notes
Grapefruit · Juniper
Heart Notes
Sandalwood
Base Notes
Galbanum · Rose
The top notes arrive as a bright burst of grapefruit and juniper, immediately establishing an airy, zesty opening that feels refreshing and self-assured. The citrus brightness carries an almost effervescent quality, setting an uplifting mood that feels particularly luminous in warm conditions.
As the fragrance settles, the heart reveals a refined floral-woody core of sandalwood, osmanthus, and mastic. These middle notes create depth without heaviness—a quietly commanding presence that whispers rather than shouts. The osmanthus brings a delicate sweetness while sandalwood grounds the composition with creamy, natural warmth.
The base unfolds with galbanum and rose, extending an intimate skin-close trail that lingers for 6–8 hours. This woody finish feels elegant and understated, with just enough presence to leave a gentle impression. Year-round wearable, yet at its finest in warm weather when its airy character truly blooms.
