- Description
- A leafy, bracing interpretation of classic cologne, with lemon, citron, orange, bitter orange, bergamot, and lime giving the opening a bright Mediterranean snap. Petitgrain, orange blossom, lavender, rosemary, verbena, and maté make the heart greener and more herbal than the house’s softer French cologne, while neroli, iris, and benzoin leave a restrained polished drydown. It feels crisp, elegant, and quietly aromatic rather than decorative or sweet.
