Composition & Character
How It Wears
A Signature Fragrance
Cedar
Cedar, sourced from various species of coniferous trees, exudes a deep, resinous aroma with hints of sweetness and wood smoke. Its scent is both comforting and grounding, reminiscent of old libraries or the quiet solitude of a forest. This versatile note has long been favored for its ability to blend seamlessly into complex compositions without overpowering other ingredients.
Myrrh
Myrrh, harvested from the sap of trees native to Somalia and Yemen, exudes a complex aroma of balsamic sweetness intertwined with earthy, slightly smoky undertones. This resin has been valued for millennia not only for its fragrance but also for its medicinal properties, making it a cornerstone in both perfumery and ritual.
Vetiver
Vetiver, harvested from the roots of a tall grass native to India, exudes an earthy aroma that is both dry and slightly sweet. Its scent profile ranges from smoky and leathery to green and fresh, depending on how it’s distilled and aged. This versatile note thrives in tropical climates and has long been cherished for its grounding qualities.
