Undergrowth
Undergrowth by Rook Perfumes is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with petrichor, mint and cut grass, moves into mandarin and iris and dries down to vetiver, patchouli, petrichor and white musk. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Petrichor Rain on hot stone and dust. The smell of a storm arriving.
- Mint Cold and tingly. Great in small doses, toothpaste in large ones.
- Cut Grass Exactly what it says. Sharp, wet and nostalgic.
Heart
- Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
- Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.
Dry-down
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Petrichor Rain on hot stone and dust. The smell of a storm arriving.
- White Musk Clean, soft, laundry-like. The 'smells like nothing but better' note.
