Winter 24
Fragrance notes
Character
Winter 24 by Frenn opens with a brisk slap of citrus and peppermint, like crushing frozen lemon peel and tarragon needles between your fingers. The heart turns aromatic and resinous, where Moroccan rose blooms over eucalyptus and rosemary, but the cloves and juniper keep things bristling, never soft. On the dry down, balsam fir and Virginia cedar take over, a woody cathedral spiced with lavender and vetiver, though jasmine sambac peeks through like a candle flickering in a cold room.
This fragrance paints a single image: a greenhouse at dusk in December, glass fogged, crushed herbs on the stone floor, a single rosebush pushing through the frost. It feels natural but tightly composed, more niche artisan than mainstream, with a sharp green freshness that never turns syrupy. The numbers are honest: longevity barely pushes three hours, sillage hovers around your collar. You will need to reapply, or accept it as an intimate whisper.
It suits someone who wants a winter scent that refuses the usual gourmand trap, a person who prefers pine needles to vanilla. Skip it if you crave projection or all-day presence. Wear it for a winter walk in the city, or a quiet afternoon by a window with snow falling outside. Is there anything more stubborn than a rose in January?
