INTENSITY
Close to moderate
Everyday wear, cooler weather and evenings when you want presence without sweetness.
WHY IT MADE THE EDIT
The forest-like cypress, incense and vetiver profile feels restrained, distinctive and easy to understand. It earns its place as the least conventional everyday option in the edit.
THE COMPROMISE
The damp, smoky opening will not suit someone looking for a bright citrus or conventional fresh fragrance. Sample it on skin first.
