A woody aromatic that moves from dewy bergamot and laurel into dry resin, cool conifers and deep oud.
Perfumer: Marianne Nawrocki Sabatier
Bergamot opens with bright acidity, and laurel adds the green, slightly bitter scent of a crushed leaf, giving the start a dewy freshness. Black pepper sharpens the citrus with fine, dry sparks.
At the center, olibanum brings a dry resinous smoke, cedarwood a straight, clean timber line, and cypress the coolness of needles. Rather than weighing the scent down, these three open up space. The idea behind the composition follows a single thread of scent unravelling into cloud and flowing water.
Underneath, oud lays down a deep shadow of wood, while benzoin's soft sweetness and the damp, mossy tone of oakmoss settle the light opening. It grows out of a small pause in a busy working day.
