Reviewed profile

Opens on cardamom and lavender, settling into vetiver and caraway. The character is cool, with a little weight underneath, dry throughout. It keeps within arm's reach.

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.
