Grapefruit and bergamot open crisp and citrus forward, a brief fresh moment before saffron and jasmine take over with a warmer, spiced sweetness. Amberwood and ambergris settle in through the base, joined by fir resin and cedar for a woody backbone that keeps the sweetness grounded rather than cloying. This EDP version reads slightly lighter than the Extrait but keeps the same signature amber woody character, well suited to cold evenings.
Projection is strong initially and settles into a warm skin scent, with longevity averaging seven hours.
