Fragrance notes
Character
Anna Ivanova composed this unisex release for PerfumeBox in 2019. Raspberry and mandarin orange provide a bright, edible fruitiness that feels lifted rather than heavy. Lime and bergamot add a sharp citrus edge that cuts through the sweeter elements. Basil and wormwood bring a bitter, green, aromatic quality that keeps the fruit from leaning into a candy direction. Vetiver and oud sit alongside teak wood and guaiac wood to create a dense, earthy foundation that feels dry and textured. The blend reads as woody and fresh spicy at once, moving between juicy top notes and a serious wooden core without settling into a single mood.
Wear it when the air feels cool and the sky is bright, perhaps while walking past wet trees on a clear afternoon. The mix of citrus and wood suits someone who likes a fragrance that changes character as the day goes on. People who prefer soft, powdery florals or clean laundry scents will find this too bitter and resinous. The fruit here is tart, the herbs are loud, and the woods are dark. Imagine a wooden cabin built in the middle of a citrus grove, with raspberry vines climbing the rough timber walls.
