12BC
Fragrance notes
12BC opens with yuzu, clary sage, and cardamom. The yuzu provides a bright citrus facet that feels clean and immediate. Clary sage adds an herbal edge that keeps the opening from leaning sweet. Cardamom brings a warm spice that sits just behind the citrus and gives the first minutes a dry heat.
Nutmeg, orris, and rose form the heart. Nutmeg continues the spice thread from the top notes and keeps the transition smooth. Orris introduces a powdery texture that softens the sharper edges of the spices. Rose sits quietly in the background and adds a floral lift without making the composition lean feminine.
Vetiver, sandalwood, and musk anchor the base. Vetiver contributes an earthy quality that grounds the lighter notes above it. Sandalwood adds a smooth woodiness that feels steady and calm. Musk rounds out the foundation with a soft finish that ties the wood and earth together.
The overall character is aromatic, woody, and powdery with clear warm spicy and fresh spicy accents. Citrus and rose are present but balanced by iris and earthy tones. The masculine profile stays consistent from the first spray through the later stages, with each layer supporting the next
