Alba di Seoul

Alba di Seoul

Alba di Seoul, created in 2012 in honor of Seoul, is an Eau de Cologne inspired by the transition from the cool Korean night to the rising dawn, when sunlight illuminates the city skyline from a mountain summit. This spicy fougère tells a story of calm and regeneration.

About This Fragrance

This fragrance captures the quiet of Korean conifer forests and the mystical beauty of Seoul's dawn. The sparkling top of bergamot and nutmeg dispels the night's chill, while the heart of violet leaf, lavender, and jasmine paints the clear morning air. The base of patchouli, amber, cedarwood, and musk brings the deep calm and warmth of the woods.

Scent Profile

The opening is a bright burst of bergamot's citrus and nutmeg's spice. The heart weaves green violet leaf, herbal lavender, and rich jasmine. The base lingers with earthy patchouli, sweet amber, dry cedarwood, and soft musk. Overall, it is spicy yet clean, a composed woody-floral with a fougère character.
