Fragrance notes
Character
Bergamot and grapefruit present a bright, slightly bitter citrus opening. The grapefruit carries a zest that feels sharp against the skin. Violet enters early and gives the heart a powdery, slightly dusty floral quality. Pink pepper and pepper add a crisp bite that keeps the florals from feeling too soft. Neroli sits in the background, offering a clean, soapy freshness that lifts the heavier notes.
Vetiver takes the lead in the drydown with an earthy, root-like scent that feels grounded. Cedar provides a dry, pencil-shavings woodiness that pairs well with the moss. Oakmoss contributes a damp, forest-floor texture that anchors the entire composition. The powdery violet from the heart lingers here, mixing with the vetiver to create a scent that is both clean and deeply natural. The wood feels dry rather than resinous.
The blend of moss and vetiver suggests a walk through a garden where the rain has just stopped and the sun is breaking through the clouds. Wet earth rises up from the path while the air still carries the clean scent of damp cedar planks. The powdery floral notes drift through the space like fine dust caught in a beam of light.
