Scent Depot Score™

7.5/10

Very good

Strong category choiceA crisp mint–orange opening (with yuzu/bergamot/ginger sparkle) moves quickly into a cool herbal heart of cypress–lavender and an understated woody‑musky amber base. Expect moderate longevity and soft‑to‑moderate projection—clean, soapy, and office‑safe rather than loud.

More Information

Fresh-green clarity with a smooth, non‑aggressive character.

Things to know

You need heavy projection or 8–12h longevity; skew moderate.
You dislike clean, soapy lavender/herbal tones in the dry‑down.
