Fragrance notes
The sun has just dipped below the terrace wall, leaving the air cool against the skin. A glass of sparkling water sits on the iron table, beads of condensation trailing down the side. You lift your wrist and catch the bright, oily lift of Calabrian bergamot mixed with the sharp bite of pepper. It feels immediate and clean, cutting through the evening air. As the moment settles, the pepper deepens into the tingle of Sichuan and pink varieties, weaving through a soft, dusty lavender and the earthy pull of patchouli. Geranium adds a green, stem-like edge while vetiver and elemi bring a resinous, slightly herbal weight. The space around you feels textured now, the citrus giving way to something warmer and more grounded as cedar and labdanum begin to rise from the base, the ambroxan lending a smooth, musky glow to the fading light. The scent sits close to the skin, blending with the cooling air and the quiet sound of the garden, the layers shifting between spice and wood without ever becoming heavy, the lavender lingering near the surface while the amber notes gather their strength beneath it
