Gin and elemi give a crisp, resinous opening over rosemary, clary sage and lavender. Guaiac wood, moss and pine ground it into a dry aromatic fougere that feels fresh, herbal and quietly rugged.

Projection, risk and texture describe how a fragrance behaves in a room and on skin. Where wear reports are thin, those scores rest near the middle by design, so a mid-range reading here is a statement about the evidence as much as about the scent. Warmth and sweetness are derived from composition and do not carry that caveat.
