Notes, explained

Opening

• Petitgrain Bitter twigs and leaves of the orange tree. Dry and a little green.
• Black Pepper Dry and prickly. Gives a fragrance grip and a bit of bite.
• Frankincense Bright, peppery, church-like resin. Lifts and cools a fragrance.

Heart

• Cumin Warm, spicy and unmistakably sweaty. Divides rooms.
• Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.

Dry-down

• Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
