No 3. Jipse
Fragrance notes
Character
Lemongrass and grapefruit open No 3. Jipse with a sharp, green citrus that feels cut with a knife. The iris arrives early, adding a cool, powdery edge that keeps the fruit from leaning sweet. Cypress moves through the middle with a clean, resinous weight. Saffron brings a warm, slightly metallic glow that sits close to the skin.
Iso E Super wraps the heart in a smooth, modern haze that blurs the sharper edges. Birch tar enters with a dry, smoky leather tone that grounds the entire composition. Maple adds a faint, resinous sweetness that never becomes syrup. Mahogany gives the base a dark, polished wood character.
Vetiver finishes the foundation with an earthy, rooty bitterness that feels honest and unpolished. The leather here is dry and worked, not glossy or new. Every note feels placed with intention rather than layered for volume. The overall impression is masculine, woody, and quietly aromatic.
Picture a woodworker's bench in a cool room, scattered with shavings of birch and mahogany, a half-peeled grapefruit resting near a bundle of fresh lemongrass.
