Kruidvat

The range is built around citrus, aromatic and fresh spicy accords. Bergamot appears throughout, lending a bright and immediate opening to many of the compositions. Cedar and musk provide a dry and clean foundation that sits beneath the sharper top notes, while rose adds a soft floral facet to select releases.

Wearing something from this house tends to feel light and uncomplicated. The citrus and aromatic elements create a fresh impression that carries through the wear, supported by the subtle warmth of woody and amber notes that turn up alongside the main accords. The materials keep the experience grounded rather than fleeting, moving from the initial spice and fruit into a smoother finish. One release here is named Time to Relax.
