Notes, explained
Opening
- Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
- Bitter Orange Marmalade without the sugar. Sour and slightly medicinal.
- Mint Cold and tingly. Great in small doses, toothpaste in large ones.
Heart
- Rosemary Sharp, camphorous herb. Bracing and clean, borders on medicinal.
- Petitgrain Bitter twigs and leaves of the orange tree. Dry and a little green.
- Neroli Distilled orange blossom. Green, soapy and elegant.
Dry-down
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Cashmeran Musky, woody and slightly spicy. Velvety and very persistent.
