Prestige Dry Herb
Fragrance notes
Prestige Dry Herb opens with a crisp, resinous bite of galbanum that immediately establishes a green character. Mandarin orange, lemon, and bergamot provide a bright citrus layer that keeps the opening from feeling too sharp. Vervain adds a subtle herbal edge to the top notes. As the fragrance develops, jasmine and neroli introduce a white floral softness, but the heart remains grounded through cedar and clary sage. Cloves bring a warm, spicy facet that sits comfortably alongside the aromatic herbs. The transition from the bright opening to the more structured middle feels steady rather than dramatic.
The base centers on moss and labdanum, creating a mossy and balsamic foundation that defines the chypre structure. Tonka bean adds a gentle sweetness, while ambergris and musk contribute an earthy warmth. The overall impression is aromatic and woody, with the green accords from the opening still visible against the deeper base. It suits cooler weather and formal occasions, fitting a traditional masculine profile. The composition stays close to its classic 1960 roots, balancing citrus freshness with resinous depth. The cloves and cedar maintain a dry counterpoint to the tonka bean, preventing the base from becoming overly rich
