Notes, explained
Opening
- Cypress Cool, green, resinous conifer. Sharp and clean.
- Blackcurrant Tart, dark and slightly catty. Adds bite to florals.
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
Heart
- Sage Dry, herbal and slightly bitter. Adds a grown-up, aromatic edge.
- Pomegranate Tart, juicy and jewel-red. Sharper than most berries.
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
Dry-down
- Oakmoss Damp forest floor. Bitter, green and the backbone of every chypre.
- White Musk Clean, soft, laundry-like. The 'smells like nothing but better' note.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
