Aqua Fortis
Fragrance notes
Character
Aqua Fortis contains hay, petitgrain, saffron, musk, palisander rosewood, pine needles, pink pepper, tea, yuzu, and ambergris. The hay brings a dry, golden tone that feels pulled from a barn wall. Pink pepper adds a sharp bite that cuts through the thicker materials. Yuzu offers a bright citrus flash that keeps the blend from sitting too heavy.
Petitgrain and tea lend a clean, leafy edge to the mix. Pine needles push the scent toward a forest floor that has gone quiet. Saffron wraps the sharper notes in a warm, expensive cloth. Palisander rosewood contributes a smooth wood that feels polished rather than raw.
Musk and ambergris sit underneath the green and spicy elements. The result is a scent that feels at home in a dim room with wood furniture and a fire burning low. It suits someone who likes a fragrance that feels both natural and dressed up. It is not for those who want a light, airy summer spray.
Aqua Fortis is composed by Michael Coyle for MIKMOI. The fragrance feels like standing in a heated cabin while cold air presses against the glass outside.
