Our take

Altamir opens with a bright lift of bergamot, neroli, and pineapple leaf, giving the first spray a crisp green-citrus feel. Orange blossom soon brings a fuller white-floral tone, while jasmine and cyclamen soften the edges with a clean, airy sweetness. The shift is smooth and easy to follow, with each note adding polish without making the blend feel crowded.

Its heart has the warmth of sunlight on pale wood, a single concrete image for a scent that balances freshness with a richer base. Tonka bean and amber lend a gentle vanilla-like sweetness, while musk, patchouli, teak wood, and vetiver leave the finish grounded and lightly aromatic. Altamir is long-lasting, and its sillage forms a modest bubble that stays present in close conversation. The effect feels composed and comfortable, with enough depth for someone who enjoys sweet woods and white florals without wanting a heavy cloud around them.

Altamir fits a dressed-up dinner, an evening gathering, or a quiet day when you want extra warmth around the skin. Its polished character works especially well through fall and winter, while the citrus and neroli give it a clear place in spring too. It suits wearers who like ambered sweetness with a fresh floral opening, and its unisex profile gives the blend room to move across styles. Ted Lapidus keeps the final impression warm, smooth, and quietly inviting.
