Formosa No. 14
Fragrance notes
Character
Tangerine and lemon open with a bright, juicy snap that feels like sunlight hitting a garden path after rain. The citrus is loud and cheerful, but it does not stay sweet for long. Wormwood and thyme arrive quickly with a dry, herbal edge that pulls the fruit back from candy territory. It smells like crushed leaves underfoot and cool air moving through tall grass.
Birch and patchouli give the base a dark, leathery texture that grounds the fresh opening. There is a faint smokiness here, along with a powdery softness that keeps the woods from feeling too sharp. Cedar and sandalwood add a dry warmth that works best when the air has a bite to it. Picture a walk through damp woods in a heavy coat, or a quiet morning with steam rising from a cup of tea.
Musk lingers in the background and makes the whole composition feel close and personal. It is a good choice for a man who likes his citrus backed by something rugged and a bit serious. Wear it when the weather turns cool and you want a scent that feels like a favorite sweater.
