Opens with a bright, citrus-forward burst of bergamot and lemon, sharpened by cardamom before lavender softens the heart into something cleaner and more coastal. The driftwood accord anchors the mid-stage without going heavy — it reads as sun-bleached wood rather than dark resin. The dry-down is where it earns its price: ambergris and musk settle into a skin-close, slightly saline finish with real depth and longevity. Projection is moderate, sillage polite but present — never loud, always refined. — Warm-weather days and evenings for someone who wants a grown-up take on aquatic without smelling like a department store.
