Fragrance notes
Character
Elemi and sea salt open the door to a cool, open field where the air carries a sharp mineral bite. The resin feels bright and slightly peppery, lifted by a clean saline note that stops short of smelling like the ocean. It is a crisp beginning that feels natural rather than synthetic, setting a tone that is grounded and calm.
Cedar and frankincense move in next, joined by mate and tea. The smoke is dry and soft, never heavy, while the tea adds a slightly bitter green edge. Ambergris rounds the heart with a warm, skin-like texture that keeps the resins from feeling dusty. The transition stays smooth and architectural.
Hay, sandalwood, and vetiver close the composition with dry grass and creamy wood. The hay smells sun-dried and slightly sweet, resting against the earthy root of vetiver. Sandalwood smooths the finish so the drydown never turns sharp. The overall impression is woody, herbal, and quietly balsamic.
A person who enjoys walking through damp woods on a gray morning will feel at home here. It fits a coat-and-scarf commute, a weekend market visit, or a bright afternoon with cold air and pale sunlight.
