Opens with a clean, slightly sharp citrus that resolves quickly into the real heart: cool lavender and a dry, silvery artemisia that keeps everything from going soft. The cedar comes in firmly during the dry-down, pushing the composition toward structured woodiness rather than warmth, while sandalwood and musk hold things together without going creamy or heavy. Projection is moderate and polished — present without demanding attention. Sillage is clean, close-wearing by the later hours — A well-behaved, quietly confident woody aromatic built for professional settings and transitional weather.
