The top notes of neroli open up with gutsy masculinity, giving way to citrus hints of mandarin and bergamot. Lavender provides the perfume’s soul of pure freshness, like a Mediterranean breeze, studded with spicy hints of sage and pepper: evocative recollections of a mother’s fresh laundry and the classic essence of a father. A powerful base of tobacco provides structure for the last dry notes of cedar wood, dotted with sweet hints of tonka bean.
