Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Pear Crisp, watery and green-sweet. Clean and modern.
Heart
- Orris Root Iris root aged for years. Buttery, powdery, unmistakably refined.
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
Dry-down
- White Musk Clean, soft, laundry-like. The 'smells like nothing but better' note.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
