Our take

Bitter suits someone who wants a citrus scent without the usual cheerful mood. It feels at home in a quiet office or on a cool afternoon walk. The wearer is likely comfortable with a fragrance that does not try to please everyone in the room.

Petitgrain and lemon start the composition with a sharp, clean edge. Neroli adds a slight floral softness to the bright opening. Bergamot rounds out the top with a familiar, slightly tart citrus presence.

Birch leaf and galbanum turn the scent distinctly green. Moss in the heart brings a damp, earthy quality that grounds the brighter notes. White amber and vanilla in the base provide a gentle warmth, while musk leaves a soft, powdery finish.

The overall impression is a glass of iced tea served in a forest clearing, where the steam from the cup rises into the damp canopy.
