Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Citrus Notes A mix of citrus peel with no single fruit named.
- Grapefruit Bitter, slightly sweaty citrus. More grown-up than lemon.
- Licorice Sweet anise with a dark, salty edge. Divisive and distinctive.
Heart
- Lavender Herbal, clean, slightly medicinal. Barbershop in one note.
- Star Anise Liquorice-like and cool. Sweet but not sugary.
Dry-down
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Almond Marzipan and cherry-stone. Sweet with a bitter undertone.
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
