Scent Development and Character
A dry, woody composition built around vetiver and cedarwood, with buckwheat lending a warm toasted grain nuance that softens the structure. The scent moves from crisp woods into a smoother, more intimate woody skin trail.
Who It Is For and When to Wear It
Best suited to cool weather and understated settings, where its quiet woody warmth can sit close to the skin without crowding a room. It feels especially natural with knitwear, wool, or other textured fabrics. Autumn, Winter Soft to moderate sillage, staying fairly close to the wearer (editorial estimate).
