Fragrance notes
Character
The mandarin orange arrives bright and immediate. It carries a juicy, realistic peel scent that feels lifted straight from the fruit rather than a candied sweet. This opening is brief and serves only to introduce the woods that follow.
Sandalwood takes over with a creamy, soft texture. It sits close to the skin and provides a smooth, almost milky foundation for the sharper notes to rest upon. The warmth here feels steady and comforting.
Cedar anchors the final stage with a dry, pencil-shavings sharpness. It cuts through the earlier creaminess, leaving a clean, dry wood impression. The powdery accord becomes more noticeable here, softening the edges of the cedar without muting its distinct character. There is a spicy warmth that lingers in the background, adding a gentle heat to the drydown. The fruity facet from the mandarin eventually fades, but a ghost of that citrus brightness remains tangled in the timber.
Wear this during a sunny afternoon walk or while working in a bright office space. It fits a man who prefers his wood scents to have a clean, dry finish rather than a heavy, resinous weight. It is a simple companion for clear days.
