Bergamot and lemon open with a clean, slightly tart brightness that burns off quickly, making way for a neroli-jasmine heart that reads more quietly elegant than overtly floral — soft rather than heady. Sandalwood anchors the dry-down alongside warm amber and musk, pulling the whole thing toward a smooth, skin-close finish with moderate sillage and no sharp edges. Projection stays polite throughout; this is a fragrance that stays near the wearer rather than announcing a room — ideal for warm-weather office wear or relaxed daytime outings for men who favor understated refinement over statement.
