Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Lemon Clean, sour, instantly recognisable. Bright but burns off fast.
Heart
- Juniper Berry Gin, basically. Piney, dry and bracing.
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
Dry-down
- Ambrette Seed The only natural musk. Pear-like, warm and slightly boozy.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
