Notes, explained
Opening
- Grapefruit Bitter, slightly sweaty citrus. More grown-up than lemon.
- Citrus Notes A mix of citrus peel with no single fruit named.
- Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
- Eucalyptus Sharp, camphorous, clears the head. Reads as clean more than green.
Heart
- Nutmeg Warm, woody and slightly sweet. Cosy without being gourmand.
Dry-down
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Incense Smoky, dry and meditative. Adds gravity to anything.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
- Pine Sappy and bracing. Straightforwardly outdoorsy.
