Fragrance notes
Character
Apple and plum give this a soft, fruity sweetness right at the start, unusual for a men's fragrance built mostly around wood, with oakmoss and geranium keeping the opening green and slightly tart. Bergamot and lemon add a citrus lift alongside them before cinnamon and mahogany take the middle into warmer territory, carnation adding a faint spiced-floral note most people won't consciously notice.
Sandalwood, cedar and vetiver settle into a dry, woody base, and that base is also where the fragrance holds its ground on skin, a fair, average stay noticed by whoever's sharing your desk or your elevator, calm and unshowy about it rather than pushing outward. Olive tree adds a faint, green bitterness to the drydown, an unusual touch for a scent this classic.
It comes into its own during mild, transitional weather, when the fruit-wood balance feels most natural, though it holds up fine into winter too, less so in the height of summer when the wood can feel heavy. It's a dependable, office-friendly fragrance, easy to wear and easy to forget you're wearing, built for repetition more than for standing out on any single day.
