Notes, explained
Opening
- Cardamom Cool, aromatic spice with a eucalyptus lift. Smells expensive.
- Gingerbread Spiced, treacly and baked. Ginger, cinnamon and brown sugar together.
Heart
- Cinnamon Sweet heat. Reads festive, sometimes to a fault.
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
- Saffron Leathery, medicinal and slightly metallic. The signature of modern niche.
Dry-down
- Incense Smoky, dry and meditative. Adds gravity to anything.
- Pine Sappy and bracing. Straightforwardly outdoorsy.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
