Fragrance Notes

Top Notes

Italian cypress, myrtle and rosewood. The opening establishes the fragrance’s first burst of freshness, greenery, fruit or spice.

Heart Notes

Dry sandalwood and cedar. This middle stage reveals the main identity of the scent once the opening begins to settle.

Base Notes

Amber, white musk and faint spice. The drydown provides depth, texture and the longest-lasting impression on skin and clothing.

Overall Scent Summary

A dry, meditative sandalwood scent shaped by cypress and cedar. The EDT is airy, pencil-dry and calm, with a quiet incense-like atmosphere despite its restrained sweetness. Best worn during all year, especially spring and autumn, especially for work, reading, galleries and quiet travel.

Estimated Longevity

• EDT: approximately 5–7 hours on skin.
• EDP: approximately 7–9 hours on skin, with a richer base and stronger presence.

Longevity is an estimate, not a performance guarantee. Skin chemistry, weather, spray count and fabric can change the result.

Style & Wearing Guide

Pair with grey tailoring, Japanese denim, cotton overshirts and simple leather shoes. Use two to four sprays for professional or shared indoor spaces, and one additional spray for outdoor or evening wear.

Perfumer’s Note

“This interpretation keeps the recognisable olfactory idea clear while refining the transitions from opening to heart and drydown for practical modern wear.”
