This is a woody spicy unisex fragrance launched in 2023. Its core characteristic is a fresh citrus opening, transitioning to a warm spicy and woody base, creating a clean, refreshing yet layered olfactory experience.
👃 Fragrance Structure: An Evolution from Freshness to Warmth
This fragrance is described as “clean, sharp, and ethereal,” and its fragrance structure can be roughly divided into three distinct phases:
Top Notes: A refreshing citrus opening. Bright fruity notes of bergamot, orange, and lime open the door, bringing an invigorating and vibrant freshness.
Middle Notes: A warm spicy heart. The fresh fruity notes gradually give way to warm spices. Cardamom and pepper provide a slight spiciness, nutmeg adds warmth, while violet offers a unique powdery feel, balancing the spiciness and making the overall scent softer. Base Notes: A deep woody base. The fragrance ultimately settles into a warm and long-lasting foundation. Amber provides a warm, resinous feel, musk adds a clean, skin-like finish, and oak offers a solid woody character, all contributing to a calm and grounding finish.
