Fragrance notes
Character
Verbena, lemon, and bergamot open the composition with a bright, clean citrus that feels immediate and unclouded. The lemon carries a tart edge while the verbena adds a faint herbal lift, keeping the start from leaning into simple sweetness. Bergamot rounds the trio with a soft bitterness that settles the tone before the heart takes over.
Coriander and lavender follow with a dry, slightly peppery floral character. The lavender is calm and steady rather than powdery, and the coriander pushes it toward a crisp, green aromatic feel. Together they bridge the fresh opening and the heavier base, letting the fragrance shift without a sharp break.
Amber, oakmoss, palisander rosewood, benzoin, sandalwood, patchouli, and vetiver form a base that is woody, earthy, and lightly resinous. The oakmoss and vetiver add a damp, grounded texture while the benzoin and amber bring a warm, balsamic depth. Sandalwood and rosewood smooth the patchouli so it reads as dry and clean. The whole blend suits a warm morning outdoors, when sunlight is steady and the air feels clear, and the citrus still sits close to the skin while the woods begin to spread
