Notes, explained

Opening

Raspberry Tart, jammy and slightly fuzzy. Very popular in modern sweet scents.
Tarragon Anise-tinged and green. Adds a herbal lift to barbershop scents.
Clove Hot, dry and dental. Powerful — a little goes a long way.

Heart

Narcissus Green, hay-like and slightly animalic. Strange and beautiful.
Tuberose Creamy, waxy and enormous. The loudest white flower.
Geranium Rosy and minty at once. Reads masculine more often than not.
Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.

Dry-down

Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
Ylang-Ylang Banana-custard floral. Rich, tropical and slightly rubbery.
Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
Mysore Sandalwood The legendary Indian sandalwood. Richer and butterier than any substitute.
