Roaming Wind
A green gale of galbanum and wormwood, rhubarb and tobacco in motion, then dry moss and wood: a nomadic ride across spring grassland.
Perfumer: Steve Guo
Picture a spring journey on horseback across open grassland, the air new and the horizon wide. It won Best Male Fragrance at the 2024 Golden Osmanthus Awards.
Galbanum arrives first, green and sharp, with the bitterness of wormwood; bergamot runs brightly between them, and together they feel like a strong wind flattening the grass. Then rhubarb's sourness and the leafy note of bay leaf meet the smoky edge of tobacco, adding the momentum of a rider who keeps moving.
It settles on dry moss, musk and cedarwood. The astringency of moss and the hard grain of wood draw the outline of someone standing apart from the herd, quiet and self-possessed, free of any fixed mould.
