Citrus and black tea settle into warm ambery musk.
Citron, Calabrian bergamot and Sicilian orange open bright and citrusy before neroli, ginger and cinnamon move it toward a spiced tea accord. Black tea, ambroxan, guaiac wood and olibanum take over for a smooth, ambery drydown that carries most of the wear.
Perfumed by: Jacques Cavallier Belletrud
KSI Take: The drydown leans hard on ambroxan for its lift and sillage, which critics have called a slightly lazy way to get diffusion, and it will smell familiar to anyone who already owns a modern ambroxan forward fragrance. Wear it year round for work or daily use, projection is moderate and it settles close to skin after a few hours, easy rather than distinctive.
