Notes, explained
Opening
- Apple Crunchy and tart or soft and red, depending on the treatment.
- Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Pink Pepper Fizzy, rosy and bright. Adds sparkle without heat.
Heart
- Nutmeg Warm, woody and slightly sweet. Cosy without being gourmand.
- Neroli Distilled orange blossom. Green, soapy and elegant.
- Cardamom Cool, aromatic spice with a eucalyptus lift. Smells expensive.
Dry-down
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
